Hi Cynthia. Greetings, and welcome to the online depth psychology community. I'm glad you've found us.
As you may know, we currently have over 1500 members from all over the world. I hope as you explore the community a bit you find a dynamic group of like-minded people who are all deeply drawn by the field of depth psychology. While there are many Jungian analysts and clinical psychologists here, our members come from many walks of life--artists, writers, doctors, healing professionals, counselors, students, business people, etc--so there is much cross-disciplinary knowledge and experience here to be shared.
On that note, there are many opportunities to engage as you browse the site. When you're ready to jump in, please feel free to post a topic for discussion in the forum, respond to someone else's post, or share a link to an article or web site you like.
Also I'm thrilled you're considering participating in the online book club: As you probably know, in August we're featuring Deep Blues: Human Soundscapes for the Archetypal Journey about Blue... with Dr. Mark Winborn. September will bring us "Out of the Shadows: A Story of Toni Wolff and Emma Jung" with Eliz.... Since the Book Club is all done via writing in an open forum, you can participate at your own level and schedule.You can also peruse the archives of past months and read those books with the benefit of the discussion--and if you reach out to the author, I'm sure they will still respond!
In case you need detailed help getting started and navigating the site, you can use the following link---- http://www.depthpsychologyalliance.com/page/navigating-the-site----and please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions at all! I look forward to seeing you around the community. ~Bonnie Bright, Founder
