| Résumé: | This article focuses on understanding and working with patients whose symbolic capacity is underdeveloped, or has been disrupted by trauma. The use of reverie and interpretation in the analytic process is therefore irrelevant. Many patients who present for Jungian analysis will initially present with deficits in symbolic functioning. This situation results in necessary limitations or modifications in utilizing traditional Jungian techniques such as dream analysis, active imagination, sand tray, and other expressive art techniques. The initial phase of analytic work with these patients requires a focus on developing their symbolic capacity before traditional Jungian techniques can be utilized effectively. In this paper, Jung’s concept of “symbolic attitude” will be examined, as well the conceptual models of Wilfred Bion and others who have outlined theories and methods for cultivating symbolic capacity and reflective functioning in patients for whom these capacities are impaired or poorly developed. |
