In this thought-provoking episode of Jungian Perspectives: Conversations in Depth, host and analyst Dr. Barry Miller explores the urgent question of the rise of gender identity in young people with Lisa Marchiano—Jungian analyst, co-host of the wildly popular podcast This Jungian Life, and co-author of Dreamwise.
Drawing on her two landmark articles in Psychological Perspectives, Marchiano reflects on how she first encountered the phenomenon of rapid-onset gender questioning in her clinical practice — and what it stirred in her as a depth psychologist. Far from dismissing the impulse to explore gender, she approaches it through a distinctly Jungian lens: as a potentially rich, symbolic encounter with the anima and animus — the contra-sexual dimensions Jung believed were essential to psychological wholeness.
But what happens when that symbolic process gets concretized — rushed into irreversible medical intervention? And what role might social contagion, archetypal forces, and collective complexes be playing beneath the surface of a culture-wide phenomenon?
This is a rare, nuanced, and deeply human conversation — one that holds complexity with care, inviting listeners to think more deeply about individuation, identity, and the unconscious forces shaping our collective moment.
LISA MARCHIANO, LSCW, (USA), is a Jungian analyst and the author of Motherhood: Facing and Finding Yourself (Sounds True, 2021), The Vital Spark: Reclaim Your Outlaw Energies and Find Your Feminine Fire (Sounds True, 2024), and the coauthor of Dream Wise: Unlocking the Meaning of Your Dreams (Sounds True, 2024). She is the cohost of the popular depth psychology podcast This Jungian Life and is on the faculty of the C. G. Jung Institute of Philadelphia. Lisa is on the board of Therapy First, a nonprofit that advocates for a return to a psychological approach when treating gender questioning youth.

Beschreibung

Introducing Jungian Perspectives: Conversations in Depth, a podcast offered by the journal Psychological Perspectives, a quarterly journal of Jungian thought.
Psychological Perspectives is a beautiful journal whose mission is to promote greater consciousness by honoring and amplifying the psychology of C.G. Jung. The journal has been published since 1970, sponsored by the C.G. Jung Institute of Los Angeles.
Jung said: “In the same way that the body needs food and not just any kind of food but only that which suits it, the psyche needs to know the meaning of its existence, not just any meaning but the meaning of those images and ideas which reflect its nature and which originate in the unconscious.”
Jung was fascinated by every aspect of the psyche and its relationship with the outer world. That fascination led him to explore not only dreams and fantasies but also mythology and fairy tales, philosophy and fiction, as well as the leading science of his day from anthropology to nuclear physics. Anything that touched on the psyche was his field of interest, and ours as well.
Psychological Perspectives publishes a wide range of articles from depth psychology to science, from politics to philosophy, as well as fiction, poetry, and current book, video and film reviews. Each issue is a feast not only for the mind but for the eye as well, filled with art that flows from the cover to the articles.
On our podcast Jungian Perspectives, we choose one article once a month from the journal archives and invite the author to speak with us more intimately and in depth. We offer you the chance to explore with us what relevance and meaning the Jungian perspective might have for your personal life and our collective life today.
Welcome to Jungian Perspectives: Conversations in Depth.
