• Abstract: This study aims to explore the application and symbolic significance of tree imagery in Jungian analytical psychology. Through art therapy, the study analyzes how tree imagery serves as a bridge between consciousness and the unconscious, facilitating self-understanding and healing in individuals. The study hypothesizes a positive correlation between changes in tree imagery during art therapy sessions and improvements in mental well-being. That the use of tree imagery in art therapy will achieve selfgrowth and enhance inner strength. Adopting qualitative research design, data is collected through tree imagery paintings and interview records, focusing on the individual’s experience of using tree imagery in treatment. The study also considers the influence of cultural background on the understanding of symbolic meanings, particularly within the Chinese cultural context. The results indicate that tree imagery is effective in enhancing self-awareness, emotional healing, and personal growth, offering new perspectives and methods for Jungian therapeutic practice. Simultaneously, the study points out limitations in current practices and suggests future research directions. Empirical data for the field of Jungian psychology is provided. The research deepens the understanding of prototype theory, offers important insights for theoretical and practical applications in psychotherapy. 本研究旨在探讨荣格分析心理学中树木意象在心理咨询中的应用及其象征意义。研究通过绘画治疗，分析树木意象如何作为意识与无意识之间的桥梁，促进个体的自我理解和治愈。研究假设绘画疗法中树木意象的变化与来访者心理健康状况的改善存在相关性，并预期通过树木意象的绘画疗法，来访者能够实现自我成长和内心力量的提升。研究采用现象学定性研究设计，通过树木意象画作及访谈记录收集数据，关注个体在治疗中使用树木意象的经验。研究还考虑了文化背景对意象符号理解的影响，尤其是在中国文化背景下的应用。研究结果表明，树木意象在提高自我意识、情感疗愈和个人成长方面具有效果，为荣格治疗实践提供了新的视角和方法。同时，研究指出了当前实践中的局限性，并提出了未来研究方向，为荣格心理学领域提供了实证数据，深化了对原型理论的理解，并为心理咨询实践和理论发展提供了重要洞见。
