Wolfgang Müller Kranefeldt was a German psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and National Socialist (1892–1950) who was closely associated with Carl Jung. He was active in the AAGP and IAAGP in the 1930s and, in 1936, joined the faculty of the Göring Institute (German Institute for Psychological Research and Psychotherapy) in Berlin. He was regarded as Jung's ‘leading pupil in Germany’ and was analyzed by Jung.
