Course explores Carl Jung's concept of the Shadow, and how it relates to the therapeutic relationship we maintain with our clients.  As we explore our own "shadow", our shadow has less control over our actions and reactions.  When growing in understanding and practicing the tools of this course, therapists will be able to expand the client-focued aspect of their service.
