Universal individuality

Posted by PJ under individuality, jung, psychology, quote of the day, therapy
No Comments

Random quote of the day:

“Psychotherapy and analysis are as varied as are human individuals. I treat every patient as individually as possible, because the solution of the problem is always an individual one. Universal rules can be postulated only with a grain of salt. A psychological truth is valid only if it can be reversed.”

—Carl Jung, Memories, Dreams, Reflections
