what our students say
This Jungian coaching certificate program changed how I see myself and my clients.
The individuation process became something I can actually work with. I know how to listen to it now.
I liked how the Jungian concepts became more real and usable to me.
I appreciated the ongoing sense of collegiality amongst participants, along with the culture of bravery around vulnerability and honesty in the process of learning. I also liked the richly packaged amount of material that we covered. I will be studying and re-studying the module topics as I go forth with my coaching practice. Last thing: learning and doing were always hand-in-hand. This is brilliant because it sticks.
As a practicing therapist I wasn't looking for coaching basics. I wanted the Jungian framework.
This certificate program gave me a structured way to bring depth psychology, dreamwork, and shadow work directly into my practice.
I have studied Jung for decades independently. This program gave me the practical skills I was missing. Now I can actually use Jungian concepts in conversations. I can work with images, like in metaphors and client's dreams. And... I have a certification that I am actually proud of.
What sets this apart from other life coach training programs is the depth.
We worked with shadow, mythology, and dreams. And we learned how to bring that into a coaching session with a client.
I have done other certifications in the past, but this one was the best.
Before this program I had no formal coaching training. Nine months later I had my Jungian life coach certificate, two ongoing clients, and a completely different relationship with my own psyche. Worth every bit of the investment.
What I loved most was how experiential it was. I left with real-world skills.
This was the most impactful training I’ve ever done.

OVERVIEW OF THE JUNGIAN COACHING CERTIFICATION PROGRAM
The Jungian coaching certification program at the Jung Platform stands out as a unique blend of theory and practice. For those looking to become a certified Jungian life coach, this program provides essential training in coaching skills, drawing from both life coaching practices and Jungian analysis. The course is structured to cater to individuals who may already be practicing as a life coach or those new to coaching but with a strong interest in personal development and good conversational skills.
The program is divided into five modules, plus an introductory and closing event, making up 12 intensive days of training. Each module targets different aspects of Jungian coaching. The first module introduces coaching fundamentals and integrates a Jungian perspective, while subsequent modules cover shadow work, dreamwork, mythology and storytelling, and transformation process. This comprehensive coach training program ensures participants develop the skills needed to guide others through personal growth and psychological exploration.
This Jungian life coaching certificate program was developed by Akke-Jeanne Klerk, co-founder of Jung Platform. With years of experience facilitating coaching programs in the Netherlands, Akke-Jeanne brings together her formal coaching training from the University of Applied Sciences, her psychodynamic approach, and the depth psychological perspective that is at the heart of Jung Platform.

WHAT ARE THE KEY ELEMENTS OF THE PROGRAM
- Practical training emphasis
- Shadow work and individuation
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?
The Jungian coaching program is suitable for both experienced life coaches and those new to the field. Participants come from diverse backgrounds, including therapy, social work, and various coaching practices. For those without prior coaching experience, strong conversational skills and a genuine interest in personal growth are essential. The Jung Platform welcomes individuals who are reflective and committed to doing inner work, which is integral to developing as a Jungian coach.
It is important to note that while familiarity with Jungian theory is helpful, it is not a prerequisite. The program is structured to introduce basic Jungian concepts and demonstrate how they can be applied practically in coaching sessions. This program is focused on you building confidence in your coaching skills, and not about an in-depth academic understanding of Jungian analysis or theoretical exploration.
WHAT IS THE APPLICATION AND CERTIFICATION PROCESS LIKE?
The application process for the Jungian coaching certification involves submitting a resume and an application letter explaining why the candidate is a good fit for the program. You can send your application email to info@jungplatform.com. The selection committee looks for candidates who possess good conversational skills, have a genuine interest in Jungian psychology, and are willing to engage in deep reflection.
Once accepted, participants have an intake conversation with Akke-Jeanne Klerk, co-founder of Jung Platform, to ensure the program is the right fit. Participants play an important role in shaping the quality of the group. So we want to make sure that people who sign up are reflective and enjoy working on themselves.
WHEN ARE THE LIVE SESSIONS AND MODULES?
We offer two types of cohorts to fit different schedules. Weekend cohorts have live sessions on Saturdays and Sundays. Weekday cohorts have live sessions on Mondays and Tuesdays. Both follow the same curriculum and lead to the same certificate.

WHAT SETS JUNGIAN COACHING APART?
Jungian coaching differs from standard coaching in several ways. Conventional life coaching often focuses on heroic narratives, overcoming obstacles, setting SMART goals, and achieving tangible outcomes. Jungian coaching, however, allows for a deeper exploration of the psyche. Coaches trained in this method are equipped to guide clients through symbolic and non-linear journeys, supporting them in uncovering the underlying patterns in their lives.
This approach can be especially valuable for those who find traditional coaching methods too rigid or goal-oriented. By working with dreams, myths, and archetypes, the Jungian coach helps clients navigate their inner landscapes and align their conscious actions with their unconscious drives. This method respects the natural flow of psychological growth, recognizing that true transformation may involve changes in direction as dictated by the deeper Self.
WILL THIS PROGRAM HELP ME BUILD a COACHING PRACTICE?
Yes. The program is designed to be practical from the start. You will practice coaching in every module, working with peers in a supervised setting and receiving direct feedback from your facilitator. By the end of the program you will have coached two real clients through a minimum of five sessions each, giving you genuine hands-on experience before you graduate.
We have also created a series of videos on building your coaching practice, covering practical marketing both offline and online, and exploring the inner work that comes with putting yourself and your practice into the world. Because marketing yourself as a Jungian coach is not only a practical challenge. It is also a psychological one.
Beyond the sessions themselves, you develop the confidence to hold a coaching conversation, work with what arises spontaneously, and apply Jungian tools in real time. Participants consistently describe leaving the program feeling ready to work with clients, not just knowledgeable about the theory.

IS PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF JUNGIAN PSYCHOLOGY NECESSARY?

WHY I CREATED THIS PROGRAM
A personal note from Akke-Jeanne Klerk, creator of the program
I have been working with Jungian psychology since 1996. I loved the philosophy and the worldview, and have been trying to live it ever since. I went through my own analysis, studied psychology at university, taught coaching at the University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam, and spent years training coaches at one of the Netherlands' leading coaching institutes.
I built this program around that question. The individuation process is the actual foundation of the work, not a framework layered on top of conventional coaching. That required a completely different training structure. One built on personal experience, bringing the coach into closer relationship with their own Self and their own individuation process.
The program has been running since 2022. We have facilitated over 20 cohorts. It is now taught by three experienced Jungian coaches and teachers who share the same conviction: that real Jungian coaching requires the Self to lead. I developed the curriculum, the models, and the methodology. They bring it to life with each new cohort.
What I am most happy about is that participants get in closer touch with their own depth, their own inner guidance. Even when they have been interested in Jung for a long time. They learn to recognize the stirrings of the Self as they arise in coaching conversations. The coach is the main instrument. And that awareness extends beyond the coaching room. It connects people inside the program and changes how they show up in daily life.
The cohorts are small and carefully chosen. A safe, closed container is essential for this kind of work. Jung himself spoke of the alchemical vessel, the protected space in which transformation becomes possible. Our cohorts are built on that principle.

What I kept noticing was a gap. Coaching as a field offers genuinely useful tools. But most programs are built around the ego, strengthening it, focusing on goals the conscious mind has already decided to pursue. Jungian psychology points somewhere different. The most important changes in a person's life rarely come from better planning. They come from listening to what the deeper Self is already trying to say. Where is it pointing? What does it want? Which initiations does it organize so we are ready for the next phase, even before we know what that phase is?
