Picture
Chris Beach, J.D., is a graduate of the C. G. Jung Institute - Zurich, where he trained both in Jungian analysis and in psychodrama.  For many years, he had a private practice in Portland, Maine, where he worked with individuals and facilitated dream groups.  He offered courses on Jung’s life and ideas, dream interpretation, active imagination, psychological type, and ethics.  He is currently writing a book on psychological type, looking carefully at each type’s eight functions from a depth perspective.  When he was younger, Chris helped build and head a secondary school in western Kenya, and then later served as an assistant attorney general in Maine, covering health care law.
