Discover the Archetypal Integration & Individuation Assessment

Understanding oneself is a fundamental human drive, yet traditional psychological assessments often fail to capture the complexity of inner experience, symbolic identity, or stages of existential and psychological maturation. Rooted in the principles of Analytical Psychology and inspired by the work of Carl Gustav Jung and Marie-Louise von Franz, the Archetypal Integration & Individuation Assessment (AIIA) offers a reflective model for exploring the internal terrain of the psyche. This model is based on archetypal constellations and one’s evolving relationship to the self, the unconscious, and others.
