Animating our inner lives

I'm Jane Clapp, Jungian Analyst, Registered Psychotherapist, and creator of Jungian Somatics™. My training through the International Association for Analytical Psychology demanded years of deep personal analysis, rigorous clinical work, and the kind of reckoning that changes you. It's the tradition Jung built, and it's alive in this work.

Jungian Somatics™ is rooted in Jung's understanding of the psychoid realm, where psyche and matter are not yet divided. Meaning arises through movement, sensation, image, and symbol. When our connection with this living ground is interrupted, spirit can feel distant, matter can feel dead, and the vital intelligence at the core of who we are can go quiet.

This work reintroduces the felt sense. Creativity, imagination, dreams, and the body become portals into the labyrinth of the psyche, as living terrain to move through. Movement here is listening: to the subtle currents of the Self or soul, to gestures and images that emerge rather than being forced or chosen. When control softens enough to let something else lead, reality begins to reorganize from within, and we can start to access our inner orbit of meaning and truth.

I work with creatives, depth practitioners, and people in the midst of existential shifts such as loss of meaning, brokenheartedness, and the dissolving of an identity that has run its course. Menopause, midlife, grief, illness, career transitions. Those navigating what wants to be born next through them, and learning to fully inhabit a life of embodied, spiritual meaning.

I offer longer-term Jungian analysis, Jungian Somatics™ trainings, embodied spiritual direction, immersive courses, and public teaching at various Jungian organizations.
