Depth Calls to Depth: Jungian Psychology and Spiritual Direction in Dialogue draws on the author’s dual background as a certified Jungian analyst and psychologist as well as a spiritual director with a master’s degree in theology. Over the last several decades, spiritual direction has moved beyond its monastic origins to become a major force in contemporary spirituality. Its emphasis on direct spiritual experience offers a natural parallel to Jung’s model of psychospiritual healing.

This book describes how Jungian dreamwork can enhance the practice of spiritual direction. There is much interest in Jung’s thought in spiritual circles but little informed understanding of the details of his model and its application to work with individuals. In an effort to meet this need, chapters alternate between descriptions of Jung’s approach, augmented by extensive case material and accounts of spiritual direction sessions. In this way, the book combines a comprehensive summary of Jung’s main ideas and methodologies with vignettes that illustrate their practical application. Larger issues regarding the relationship between psychology and spirituality are discussed as well as Jung’s complicated relationship with the Christian tradition. The author’s background in Ignatian spirituality and the work of mystics like Meister Eckhart allow him to demonstrate how these approaches can bridge gaps between the Christian and Jungian models of spiritual growth. Parallels to 12-Step spirituality also are explored.

The Tao of Alchemy: 
A Path of Individuation


In The Tao of Alchemy, clinical psychologist and Jungian advocate Robert F. Mannis, PhD, invites readers to explore the symbolic quest for inner transformation through the lens of modern alchemy. Unlike traditional approaches rooted in collective spirituality or external judgment, this work offers a deeply personal and experiential path to meaning, fulfillment, and spiritual growth. ​ Drawing on decades of psychotherapy experience and Jungian analysis, Dr. Mannis illuminates the mysteries of the unconscious (the verido) and its dynamic interplay with everyday life (the nigredo).

Creativity, Purpose, 
and the Unfolding Self

By Enrique MartĂ­nez Celaya

This collaboration invites readers into a conversation where questions, not answers, take center stage. Enrique Martínez Celaya and James Hollis believe that it is the questions we ask—about meaning, purpose, and self—that make life both interesting and developmental.

Welcoming Our Gods Back Home:
The Wisdom of Psychological Mysticism

by Jerry R. Wright


Jungian psychoanalyst Dr. Jerry R. Wright considers welcoming our gods back home to the human psyche, where they were birthed and where they belong, to be our most urgent psychospiritual task. Until that happens, our species will likely continue to do great harm to ourselves, to each other, and to our Earth home.
