Jungian analysis is a psychoanalytic process developed by Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist and one of the pioneers of modern depth psychology.

Like other mental health disciplines, Jungian analysis seeks to help people with their personal problems. But through its unique symbolic approach, it also fosters an appreciation of the reality and richness of the soul. By various means, often including exploration of dreams and the practice of active imagination, Jungian analysis enhances dialogue between ego consciousness and unconscious psychic contents with the aim of furthering individuation.
