The Inner World of the First Half of Life: Analytical Psychology's Forgotten Developmental Stage"

Friday Lecture April 23, 23021, 7:30-9:00 pm ET
Saturday Workshop April 24, 2021, 9:00-1:00 pm ET

Satya Doyle Byock, L.P.C.

The field of Analytical Psychology has largely ignored the developmental stage between adolescence and midlife that Jung termed the "First Half of Life." As a result, a great many individuals coming of age today, starving for guidance on how to live in relationship to their inner lives, find little that reflects them within the Jungian literature or community. In this talk, Satya will review the developmental framework in Jung's psychology and how the emphasis on the Second Half of Life within the field neglects that radical psychological work that can -- and should -- be done prior, while also excluding countless younger individuals who could benefit greatly from Jung's work. In questioning the oft-repeated notion that individuation begins in the second half of life, Satya will explore various sources, including Jung's Vision Seminars with Christiana Morgan, an American woman, then in analysis with Jung in her late twenties. In this talk, Satya will draw upon her ongoing research and clinical work as outlined in her 2015 article in Psychological Perspectives entitled "The Inner World of the First Half of Life: Analytical Psychology's Forgotten Developmental Stage."

Satya Doyle Byock, L.P.C., is a Jungian-oriented psychotherapist in Portland, Oregon, and the founding Director of The Salome Institute of Jungian Studies which offers seminars online

Satya’s clinical work focuses on individuals in “Quarterlife," the stage of adulthood between adolescence and midlife that Jung called “The First Half of Life.” 

Satya’s work argues against the standard developmental model of Analytical psychology, which views individuation as beginning in the Second Half of Life. Satya’s book on this stage of life is forthcoming from Random House in 2022.
