History

The New England Society of Jungian Analysts (NESJA) was originally formed by a small group of Zurich trained Jungian analysts living and practicing in the Boston area. They applied for and were formally admitted to the International Association for Analytical Psychology as NESJA in 1977. NESJA’s mission, as stated in its original articles of organization, was to establish a program for the training of Jungian analysts in accordance with standards recognized within the field of analytical psychology, and to further contribute to and promote greater public awareness and understanding of the concepts and practices developed by C.G. Jung. True to its mission, member analysts of NESJA formed the C.G. Jung Institute – Boston., admitting its first class of training candidates in 1980. NESJA’s ever growing number of analysts members regularly served as faculty in the Institute’s professional training program. They likewise facilitated educational and public programming, the administration of which NESJA and the Institute increasingly shared in common.

On July 1, 2020, NESJA and the CG Jung Institute – Boston entered into an agreement of merger that was duly adopted in accordance and compliance with the requirements of General Laws, Chapter 180, Section 10 of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. As in the past, the newly formed C.G. Jung Institute of New England, Inc. will continue to sponsor and co-sponsor local, national and international conferences dedicated to understanding and developing the theory and practice of analytical psychology, and of the varied ways in which these can contribute to the healing of our inner and outer worlds of experience.

All analysts members are certified by the International Association for Analytical Psychology, are graduates of the former  C.G. Jung Institute – Boston or the newly merged C. G. Jung Institute of New England, Inc., or meet the rigorous training and practice requirements comparable to those of our Institute. Consistent with our philosophy of training, the licensure status of our individual members varies as do the rules of governance of mental health practice to which they might be subject and in accordance with the state in which they practice. All analyst members are required to uphold the C. G. Jung Institute of New England Inc.’s Code for the Ethical Practice of Jungian Analysts.
