“In this world created by the Self, we meet all those many to whom we belong, whose hearts we touch; here there is no distance, but immediate presence." - CG Jung
The identity and internal narrative of those living in a country different from their childhood is contiguous with the sense of estrangement we all have felt at one time or another. We each carry forms of wounding and exclusion, the lack of belonging to family, partner, group or self. In this can reside despair, hopelessness and what feels like unrequited longing and mourning for what was.

Belonging is not only a question of place but replicates similar dynamics appearing in relationships of self to self and self to other. It contains the emotional longing, shadow and the tension of the opposites. Projections occur in the disruptive inner and outer emotions aroused. Several factors influence the course of psychological treatment. These are: the emotional core of the analyst to be available enough as a container, the need by the person to preserve sameness and the effect of unresolved negative transferences.

Throughout his writings, Jung advised about the difficulty of integrating the shadow, its moral dilemmas and how necessary it is to enhance consciousness. As he said, “Individual self-reflection, return of the individual to the ground of human nature, to [their] own deepest being with its individual and social destiny—here is the beginning of a cure for that blindness which reigns at the present hour."
