It's more complicated than that, because even Jung and Peterson are in a sense replicating the problem, or at least typical interpretations of them are. I wrote about it here: http://cosmosandhistory.org/index.php/journal/article/viewFile/518/894 …

It’s an interesting backstory. You basically re-tell the story that Nietzsche identified in the 19th century. My question is really: How do we go beyond that? Simply going back isn’t an option in my view; it can only be done insincerely.
