CENTER OF JUNGIAN STUDIES

The Center for Jungian Studies (NEJ) of the Program of Graduate Studies on Clinical Psychology at PUCSP congregates researchers, professors and students interested in developing the Jungian theory and promoting research and events around the graduate program at Master and Ph.D level.

The studies carried through our Center aim the symbolic understanding of the human being in its relation to the world and to the socio-cultural phenomena. Our work is developed within the methodological framework of analytical psychology and clinical practice.

The fundamentals of analytical psychology are articulated to the contributions of post-Jungian authors and studied with emphasis on pluralistic models of psychological life.

The Center for Jungian Studies (NEJ) organizes research groups affiliated to the CNPq (National Council of Research), disciplines, guidelines at the master's and doctorate and joint research with undergraduate students. It also holds annual events and symposia to which are invited professionals from different areas for inter-disciplinary discussions.

The inauguration of NEJ occurred in 2003, with professors Denise G. Ramos, Liliana Wahba, Ceres Araújo and Durval Faria. It counted also with the collaboration of lecturers Marion Gallbach and Alberto Pereira Lima.
Previously, Dr. Denise Gimenez Ramos ran classes for Analytical Psychology and Jungian Psychosomatics at the Center of Psychosomatics and Health Psychology coordinated by Prof. Mathilde Neder, opened in 1995. The program already graduated 17 masters and 5 doctorates. Most of them actually are teachers and researches in several universities all around Brazil.
