Jungian Coaching WITH AKKE-JEANNE KLERK: Listen to the Guide within

In coaching, clients present us with the challenges they are facing in their lives. Through deep listening, mirroring, and exercises we may offer our clients fresh perspectives on their lives and help them to connect with their soul.

Jungian coaching focuses on this connection with the innate wisdom that resides within us. In Jungian terms, the coaching interventions concentrate on the ego-Self relationship. This means that we work with our clients from the perspective that they are being guided from within to ‘become who they truly are’. A Jungian coach pays attention to the inner guidance the client is receiving (through their intuition, dreams, fantasies, synchronicities, etc.). By following the guidance, we acknowledge the individuation process of the client. 

In this 4-class course you will be introduced to the basic Jungian coaching principles. You will also get some techniques and tools that you can apply immediately in your conversations.

JUNGIAN COACHING COURSE

Write your awesome label here.
This course provides an excellent introduction to Jungian coaching. It is designed for people interested in bringing a Jungian perspective to their conversations. Perhaps you’d like to enhance the depth of your daily conversations by exploring these Jungian approaches and viewpoints. And maybe you wish to expand your existing coaching practice, or any other healing practice as massage, reiki, yoga. Or… maybe you want to apply a Jungian angle in conversations with people in your team at the workplace. The subject matter covered in this course is relevant to a wide range of conversational contexts.

Jungian coaching provides tools to increase our understanding of the other, their behavior and motivations. By investigating these deeper layers, we may assist others in finding meaning in their life experiences. By engaging in conversations about Jungian concepts such as individuation and the integration of the shadow, individuals can achieve a greater sense of wholeness. Jungian coaching has transformative long-lasting effects. 

How to recognize the deeper invitations that life holds for someone? How to honor the process of psychological development that is unique in each individual? (also known as the individuation process) How to acknowledge the hints where to go? These questions will be answered in this course by our teacher, Akke-Jeanne Klerk. (Jung Platform co-founder)

She has been coaching and teaching coaching courses since 2009. She offered coaching and courses on coaching at the University of applied sciences in Amsterdam. She also facilitated coaching certificate programs at a renowned training institute in the Netherlands for 6 years. In 2022, she created the Jungian coaching certificate program at Jung Platform. She is an internationally accredited trainer for coaching programs (by IACTM).

This program is ideal if you want to be able to

  • Approach your coaching conversations from a Jungian angle. Gain tools and techniques that you can apply in conversations with others.
  • Find yourself in conversations in which you are asked to guide another (be it in a helping profession, in HR, or with friends and family) and want to learn to do it in a way that takes the individuation process of the other into account.
  • Add a Jungian perspective to your existing coaching skills.
  • Develop a coaching practice and want to familiarize yourself with Jungian Coaching.
  • Distinguish between the wishes of the soul and the wishes of the ego.

jungian COACHING - 4 Class Descriptions

Class 1 Introduction to Jungian Coaching

In the first class, we will explore the foundations of Jungian coaching. Akke-Jeanne offers the Jungian coaching model and provides case examples. The model serves as a guideline in the coaching process and offers a framework for what to focus on in coaching sessions. In this class, the difference between Jungian coaching and other types of coaching will be addressed. Lastly, the requirements for the Jungian coach itself are being discussed.

Class 2 Ego-self, Tending to the Guide Within

In this class, the ego-Self relationship is discussed as well as the ways we can listen to the inner guide. The class contains examples and practical tools on how to stay attuned with the individuation process.

Class 3 Jungian Coaching Tools

Working with the shadow is a pillar of Jungian coaching. Shadow work taps into dreams and other expressions of the imagination to find personal keys in what’s been rejected or repressed. Akke-Jeanne will offer specific ways to find and handle this material. In this class you will get tools and techniques you can apply in your (coaching) conversations.

Class 4 The Jungian Coach

 In the last class, we will have a deeper look at the Jungian coach. How do Jungian concepts apply to the coach and their approach to life? What inner work and archetypes does the coach need to address? What about the wounded healer archetype?
In a recorded Q&A class, participants were invited to share their learnings, and engage in a conversation on coaching and ask questions around applying the course learnings.

Bonus class: Sharing, Discussion and Reflection

Course reviews

There was a clear definition of what jungian coaching is, how it differs from traditional coaching, from therapy, and a clear model was given for how to approach the client. Geat value for the time and money.(Sam)

I would highly recommend this course. I've been a therapist for 20+ years and in the Jungian realm for the last 10. I've taken a lot of courses, even some from the "greats", and this has to be in my top one or two. I got a lot out of it! (Rebecca)

I like how Akke-Jeanne structured the teaching. She provided examples, went through each step in a way that was appropriate for the length of the class and provided the opportunity to practice. (Martin)

What I liked best was that the program had a good overall view of the material. Concise and at the same time hinting at the richness of the subject matter. I am excited to explore the longer certificate program. (Neethi)

jungian COACHING - frequent asked questions

How is Jungian Coaching different from conventional coaching or Jungian analysis?

Conventional coaching is purely results-focused from an ego perspective. Jungian analysis is a long-term therapy dealing with clinical pathology. Jungian coaching acts as a bridge: it is a short-term partnership that integrates depth psychology, shadow work, and unconscious patterns to help clients align with their true Self, without performing clinical therapy

Do I need a background in Carl Jung’s psychology to take this course?

No prior background in Jungian psychology is required. This online course by Akke-Jeanne Klerk is designed to act as an accessible introduction. It provides practical coaching techniques and clear frameworks that anyone can apply to personal growth or professional conversations.

How can I apply these Jungian coaching tools practically?

If you are a life coach, therapist, or manager, you can integrate these Jungian coaching techniques into your current practice to help clients work with their unconscious. If you are focused on personal growth, these tools will help you identify your own shadow material, interpret inner guidance, and navigate your individuation process.

Does this course provide a certification, and what are the next steps?

This specific 4-class program offers an introductory certificate of completion. If you want to become a fully accredited practitioner, this course serves as the perfect foundation for the intensive Jungian Coaching Certificate Program offered by Jung Platform, which is eligible for IACTM coach accreditation.

Is this course live or self-paced?
