What to Expect?
This one-day workshop explores how Goddess archetypes can illuminate psychological processes and therapeutic work. Drawing on Jungian depth psychology and archetypal theory, we will look at the myths of Aphrodite, Demeter, and Persephone as symbolic mirrors for working with psychological wounding, relationships and the journey to Self.
Aims
To introduce participants to the relevance of Goddess archetypes in psychotherapy.
To explore the psychological meanings of the myths of Aphrodite, Demeter, and Persephone.
To reflect on how these archetypes appear in clinical practice, particularly in themes of love, loss, transformation, and renewal.
To offer experiential practices—guided reflection, journaling, and small group discussion—to integrate archetypal insights.
