Carl Gustav Jung (1875 - 1961)
Carl Gustav JUNG (1875 - 1961) developed a method of
psychotherapy and a theoretical system now known as
Analytical Psychology. He completed his formal studies
as a Psychiatrist at the universities of Basel and Zürich
and had his first clinical experience at the famed Burgölzli
Psychiatric Hospital in Zürich of which he later became
Clinical Director (1905-09).
The CG Jung Institute, Zürich was established in 1948 to
train analysts and create a centre for research in Analytical
Psychology. Carl Jung designed the concept and the first set
of regulations for the Institute and continued to supervise its
professional and academic activities until his death in 1961.
