SUMMARY:Transgenderism and Transformation: a Jungian Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Transgenderism and Transformation:\nA Jungian Perspective\nPres
 ented by\nMichael Marsman\, LCSW \nSunday\, March 8\, 4:00 - 6:00 pm\n(DAY
 LIGHT SAVINGS STARTS:  DON’T FORGET TO TURN CLOCKS ONE HOUR AHEAD)\nWhil
 e transgenderism as a cultural phenomenon seems\, at least in part\, to be
  based on a collective taste for the sensational\, its emergence represent
 s a collective shift towards a new or more differentiated way of experienc
 ing and expressing sex and gender.  This presentation will elucidate the d
 ifferences between sex\, gender\, gender role and sexual orientation.  We 
 will discuss Jungian concepts and themes and apply them to dreams and othe
 r clinical material in an effort to understand transgenderism from the poi
 nt of view of Jungian depth psychology.  That is\, we will look at gender 
 and transgenderism from a symbolic perspective and explore the ways in whi
 ch physical transition might serve psyche’s urge towards wholeness.  In 
 applying a distinctly Jungian lens on this phenomenon\, we ask what is the
  meaning of transgenderism and where is it leading both on the individual 
 level and in culture as a whole?  \nLearning  objectives: \nElucidate the 
 differences between sex\, gender\, gender role and sexual orientation.\nGi
 ve examples of how Jungian depth psychology can help people utilize dreams
  and other clinical material to experience sex and gender in a new and mor
 e differentiated way.\nExplain how the Jungian concept of wholeness might 
 embrace physical transitioning.\nMichael Marsman\, LCSW is a certified Jun
