Please share a little about yourself by way of introduction. What draws you to Depth Psychology and what are you looking for from this community?
Narrative psychology combined with social systems on the "outside" and Jungian understanding of the interior "systems" make a nice pairing. Currently working on soul-related theoretical research establishing that soul is a misnomer. A proper understanding begins with seeing that souling as process is a better beginning to understanding the workings within the Psyche.
Do you belong to any other online Psychology-related communities or orgs? If so, which?

Hi Ed!
Nice to know you. The sight looks really interesting and I am grateful to connect with other mindful people! I am in Kansas. Check out my blog at ecumenicus.blogspot.com Peace, Peggy
Thank you Ed. I practice in the greater NY area.
I find depth psychology is especially relevant for those with trauma histories, and yes it does tend to help patients find spiritual strength.
I appreciate you welcome Ed and I look forward to discussing depth psychology and gaining new insights and seeing how everyone here uses it.
Sounds very interesting...thank you for sharing with me!
Ed, thank you for your comments. Yes, this image is specifically referenced by the artist as being an image of "The Tree of Life". It is an ancient symbol, both literary and visual, within the mystical traditions in Judaism. Every branch, I believe, has specific meanings related to the attributes of the divine.
