Episode 109: John Beebe

May 11, 2022 Laura London

John Beebe, M.D. is a Jungian analyst and psychiatrist in private practice in San Francisco, California.

He graduated from Harvard University with a Bachelor of Arts in English in 1961 and went on to attend medical school at the University of Chicago where he received a Doctor of Medicine in 1965. After an internship at the United States Public Health Service Hospital in the Presidio of San Francisco, he practiced as a psychiatrist before deciding to train as a Jungian analyst. He earned his Diploma in Analytical Psychology (the degree of a Jungian analyst) from the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco in 1978.

Dr. Beebe has been in private practice for over forty years. He served as president of the San Francisco Jung Institute, founded the San Francisco Jung Institute Library Journal (now titled Jung Journal: Culture & Psyche), and was the first American co-editor of the London-based Journal of Analytical Psychology. He taught as a clinical assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of California Medical School San Francisco and is a Distinguished Life Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association.

In 1991, he delivered the annual Fay Lecture Series. His talks on Integrity in Depth were published the following year by Texas A&M University Press. He is the author of Energies & Patterns in Psychological Type: The Reservoir of Consciousness (Routledge, 2017), and co-author with Jungian analyst Virginia Apperson of The Presence of the Feminine in Film (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2008). He is also the editor of Jung’s Aspects of the Masculine (Princeton University Press, 1989), part of the series Extracts from the Collected Works of C.G. Jung, and co-editor with Ernst Falzeder, Ph.D. of The Question of Psychological Types: The Correspondence of C.G. Jung & Hans Schmid-Guisan, 1915-1916 (Princeton University Press, 2013). His essay, “The Trickster in the Arts,” was just republished this month in the volume, Anthology of Contemporary Clinical Classics in Analytical Psychology: The New Ancestors, edited by Jungian analyst Stefano Carpani.

Dr. Beebe is with us today to discuss the latest volume in the series of Jung’s lectures delivered at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zürich). The book is part of the Philemon Series of the Philemon Foundation, published by Princeton University Press. It is volume 2, Consciousness and the Unconscious, edited by Ernst Falzeder, Ph.D.
