Manca Svara

I am a Jungian analytical psychotherapist. I practice Jungian psychotherapy, which is a type of psychoanalytic psychotherapy. In my practice, I also incorporate elements of transpersonal psychotherapy and art therapy. I completed my studies in Jungian analysis/psychotherapy in September 2024 at the International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP), and I am awaiting the title of Jungian Analyst at the IAAP Congress in Zürich in September 2025. My studies were supported by the Slovenian Association for Analytical Psychology (SZAP), based in Ljubljana. I completed also a diploma in counseling with the IPAL method (a method combining the knowledge of analytical psychology, psychological astrology, and alchemy) at the IPAL Institute in Ljubljana on the topic of intergenerational trauma. I finished my training in psychotherapeutic propedeutics at Sigmund Freud University in Ljubljana in 2019. I have a Master of Arts degree from the University of Ljubljana (2012). Additionally, I have finished also the first year of training in Psychedelic Psychotherapy at the Rabbit Hole Institute in Ljubljana in 2022 and am interested in the ways Jungian psychotherapy can offer support to deep transpersonal, spiritual, and unconscious processes. I have completed a Jungian psychoanalytic individual training process (over 300 hours) and more than 150 hours of group and individual supervision. I regularly update my knowledge through professional seminars and conferences in Slovenia and abroad. I am receiving supervision from a range of accredited Jungian analysts when needed. I continuously educate myself in the field of transpersonal psychotherapy and various therapeutic approaches related to art (such as working with clay in psychotherapy, using projection cards, sand-play therapy, the use of metaphors in psychotherapy, mindfulness, and creativity).
