Research and professional activities
Research interests
Jungian psychology's contributions to the psychosocial
Jungian psychology has historically highlighted interiority and downplayed the outer-facing dimensions of psyche. I am interested in making efforts to counteract this one-sidedness.
Jung and Simondon
I am interested in researching the fertile links between French philosopher Gilbert Simondon, who wrote extensively about individuation and C G Jung for whom individuation was a central notion.
Affect in Analytical Psychology
Affect is an underesearched arena within Analytical Psychology. My sense is that it can provide an important lens for the examination of the trans-individual dimension of psychic existence.
