Moshe Alon is a Jungian analyst, educational psychologist, and family therapist based in Giv'at Shmuel, Israel, with over forty years of experience working with children, adolescents, and families. He served as the President of the New Israeli Jungian Association and as the General Manager of the Educational Psychological Services of Tel Aviv-Jaffa, a role he held during periods of heightened conflict and terror, during which he became one of Israel's leading experts in psychological intervention for trauma and emergency situations at both individual and community levels.
Alon grounded his professional work in the Educational-Psychological Service in Jungian analytic theory, identifying deeply with its theoretical worldview and allowing it to shape his approach to educational psychology. His extensive clinical observations are drawn from decades of informal discussions with colleagues and direct therapeutic engagement with children across the diverse cultural landscape of Israel.
His published scholarly contribution, "Analytical Treatment of Children and Adolescents in a Country Fraught with Contradictions and Conflicts," appears in a volume on Jungian child analysis with cultural perspectives and offers a first-hand account of applying depth psychology to young people growing up amid political and social tension. Alon's work reflects a commitment to bringing the insights of analytical psychology into public service settings, bridging the gap between institutional mental health provision and the individuation-oriented approach of Jungian analysis.
