Psicoterapia junguiana, calatonia e arte / Jungian psychotherapy, art and Calatonia

O objetivo desta pesquisa é compreender a experiência de ampliação deconsciência, vivida no processo de psicoterapia, com aplicação de calatonia eexpressa por meio de realização de mandalas e das subsequentes associações.Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, baseada em casos clínicos, interpretadosà luz da psicologia analítica junguiana e autores afi ns. A ampliação ocorreusempre que, neste processo, algum conteúdo inconsciente foi integrado àconsciência. Quando o conteúdo inconsciente encontrava-se retido pelos mecanismosde defesa, pressionando e provocando aumento do nível energético doinconsciente, a emergência de um novo símbolo, possibilitado pela calatonia eexpresso nas mandalas e/ou nos processos de associações, permitiu a transformaçãoda estrutura da consciência e a assimilação do conteúdo inconsciente,que, anteriormente, não podia ser assimilado. A experiência conjunta, corporale artística, no processo de calatonia e realização das mandalas, apoiada nasingularidade da relação entre paciente e terapeuta, reproduziu condiçõessemelhantes às das primeiras relações interpessoais, propiciando a transformaçãodos complexos e a ampliação da consciência.

The objective of this research is to understand the experience of expanded consciousnessexperienced through psychotherapy, using catalonia and expressedby means of mandalas made its subsequent associations. This is a qualitativestudy based on clinical cases analysed according to Jungian theory and similarauthors. Expansion occured whenever, in this process, somce unconsciouscontent was integarted to the conscious. When the unconscious content was repressed by defense mechanisms, pressuringand causing an increase in energetic levels in the unconcious, and theemergence of a new symbol, made possible by the calatonia and expressed inthe mandalas and/or in the associative processes, enabled the transformationof the conscious’s structure and the assimilation of the unconscious content,which hitherto could not be assimilated. The combined experience, physical andartistic in the process of Calatonia and undertaking of the mandalas, based onthe uniqueness of the relationship between patient and therapist, reproducingconditions similar to those of the fi rst interpersonal relationships, allowing thetransformation of complexes and expanded consciousness.
