Why MindView
The method is only as good as the decision to use it.
Most practices use the one approach they trained in, on everyone. Jungian Therapy is one of many ours are trained in, and which one you get is decided by what is actually driving the problem, then reviewed against monthly measures.

Jungian therapy is a depth-oriented talk therapy based on the work of Carl Jung. It explores the unconscious, including dreams, images, and patterns you repeat, to help you understand parts of yourself you have pushed out of view. The aim is integration and self-understanding. It is usually open-ended and longer-term than CBT.
Might this approach fit you?
- I want to understand myself, not just manage symptoms.
- The same patterns keep showing up in my life and I do not know why.
- I am at a turning point and questions of meaning feel urgent.
- I am drawn to dreams, images, and what sits under the surface.
- I have done short-term skills work and I want something deeper.
- I am willing to go slowly if the work goes somewhere real.
- I want a therapist who can sit with complexity instead of rushing to fix it.
You do not have to be in crisis to start. If several of these sound familiar, therapy can help.
If this sounds like the support you want, we can help.

Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, is a depth-oriented form of talk therapy based on the work of Carl Jung. It holds that much of who we are lives outside conscious awareness, and that lasting change comes from bringing those hidden parts into view.
What actually happens in a Jungian session?
You talk, and your therapist listens for what sits underneath the talking. There are no worksheets and no fixed curriculum. The hour follows what is alive for you that week: a conflict, a reaction that surprised you, a memory that keeps returning.
Over time your therapist reflects back the patterns and themes they notice. The work is slow on purpose. Insight that arrives too fast tends not to hold, and depth work trusts that real understanding builds through return and repetition.
Sessions run about 50 minutes. They are available at our Queens and Buffalo offices, and by secure telehealth throughout New York.
The open format sits inside a set structure. Your first session is an intake. The early work covers your life stages and produces a treatment plan you build together. From there, sessions are weekly, and once a month you complete standardized measures so you and your therapist can see whether symptoms and functioning are moving, and adjust the plan if they are not.
Some people find the openness of the format strange at first, particularly if they expected an agenda. There is no wrong way to use the hour. You can arrive with a specific problem or with nothing in mind, and both are workable starting points.
What is individuation?
Individuation is Jung’s word for becoming a more whole and integrated person. It does not mean becoming perfect or symptom-free. It means bringing the parts of yourself you have disowned into a working relationship with the rest of who you are.
Most of us push something out of view: anger, need, ambition, grief, doubt. Those parts do not disappear. They surface sideways, in reactions that feel larger than the moment deserves. Jungian work aims to understand and integrate them rather than remove them.
Jung called the disowned material the shadow. The word sounds dramatic, but in practice it is ordinary. It is the ambition you were taught was selfish, or the anger you learned was dangerous to show. Naming it tends to reduce its grip rather than increase it.
Why do dreams and symbols come up?
Jung treated dreams and images as a window into material the conscious mind has not yet put into words. A recurring dream, a strong image, a story you keep circling back to: each can carry information about a conflict you have not named.
This is always collaborative. You are never required to share a dream, and your therapist does not hand you a stock interpretation from a book. If a dream comes up, you explore what it means in your life, with your history. If dreams are not how your mind works, the therapy still works.
How is this different from CBT?
Cognitive behavioral therapy is structured, present-focused, and often runs a set number of sessions. You learn skills, practice them between sessions, and track progress against goals. It has a large, well-established evidence base, which the American Psychological Association covers in its overview of how psychotherapy works.
Jungian therapy is different in kind, not just in degree. It is open-ended and typically longer-term, and much of what it aims at is self-understanding rather than a symptom score. We still track symptoms with standardized measures each month, so the depth work stays accountable to how you are actually doing. Its research base is smaller and less standardized than the CBT literature, and we say so plainly rather than overstating it. The International Association for Analytical Psychology is the field’s governing body.
Neither approach is better. They answer different questions. If you want practical tools for panic attacks next month, CBT is the more direct route. If you want to understand why the same relationship keeps ending the same way, depth work has more to offer. Many people do both, at different points in their lives.
Who is this a good fit for?
Jungian therapy tends to suit adults who are curious about themselves and patient with slow work. People at turning points often do well with it: a career that no longer fits, a marriage in question, a loss that reordered everything, a stretch of life where the old answers stopped working.
It is a poor fit if you are in acute crisis and need stabilization first, or if you want a defined skills course with a clear endpoint. If that is where you are, your therapist will say so and point you toward a better-matched approach. Being told the truth about fit is part of good care.
At MindView, our clinicians draw on Jungian ideas within collaborative, evidence-informed care for adults 18 and over. In practice that often means blending depth work with more structured tools when a symptom needs direct attention, rather than treating the two as rival camps.
Getting started is simple. We are in-network with most major insurance plans, and we verify your benefits before your first session so cost is not a surprise. You do not need a diagnosis or a referral.

What we use it to treat
What does therapy here actually look like?
The first three sessions follow a clear structure, so you always know what is coming next.
- The opening work
Your therapist asks what brought you in, takes your history, and asks what you want to understand. You rate the intensity of what you are feeling on a 0 to 10 scale, which becomes the baseline. From there, your therapist walks through your life across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. In this approach they listen for what sits under the surface: recurring patterns, reactions larger than the moment deserves, and the parts of yourself you have pushed out of view. You and your therapist build the plan together. Goals are tied to what you came in for, with methods named plainly: tracking patterns as they repeat, working with dreams and images if that is how your mind works, and bringing disowned material into view. You also set one personal goal that matters to you.
- Ongoing
Weekly sessions follow the material as it surfaces, returning to patterns as they reappear. Once a month you complete standardized measures, your therapist reviews the trend with you, and the plan is adjusted based on what the data shows.
Therapy here is measured, not guessed
Once a month you have a measurement-based care review. You complete standardized measures, and your therapist reviews the trend with you. If something is not working, the plan changes. Regular therapy is the work. The review is the navigation system that keeps it pointed at the right target.
Sessions are weekly for the first two months to build a foundation, then frequency is reassessed with you. You set the pace, and you share only what you are comfortable sharing.
You do not have to figure this out alone.

Common questions
Is Jungian therapy covered by insurance?
We are in-network with most major plans. In New York: UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Medicare, Oscar Health, Meritain Health, Oxford Health Plans, Cigna, Optum, Highmark BCBS WNY, Univera Healthcare and MagnaCare. We confirm your benefits before your first session.
What happens in the first session?
The first session is a conversation. You describe what brought you in, some of your history, and what you want to understand, and your therapist explains how the work is paced. Nothing is asked of you beyond talking at your own speed.
How long does it take, and does it work?
Jungian therapy is open-ended and typically longer-term than CBT, so we do not attach a session count to it. The research base for depth and insight-oriented therapy is smaller and less structured than the base for CBT, and we describe it on those honest terms. No therapy can be guaranteed to produce a specific result.
Do I need a diagnosis to start?
No. Many people come in for identity questions, meaning, or patterns they cannot explain rather than a diagnosed condition. If your insurance requires a diagnosis for billing, your therapist will talk that through with you directly.
Can I do this by telehealth, and how soon can I start?
Yes. Reflective, conversation-based work translates well to secure video, and sessions are conducted by telehealth across New York. We are accepting new clients and respond to booking requests within one business day.
Do you analyze my dreams?
Dreams and images can be part of the work because they offer a window into the unconscious, but they are never required. You share what you want to share, and your therapist follows your lead rather than handing you a fixed interpretation.
