All of my books and writings bring a Soul Psychology (Hillman, Christou, Lopez-Pedraza, Berry) perspective to a variety of subjects ranging from Loss, Grief, Family, Power, Religion, Counseling, the much undervalued and neglected thymos Psychology of Alfred Adler, and self-reflectively to Soul Psychology itself. It’s a maverick, marginalized perspective today, but if psychology continues down its current reductive, simplifying, narrowing, one-dimensional and now often politicized path, I think that Soul Psychology may eventually have a Renaissance, a recovery of the Golden Age it had in the late 70’s, following the publication of Hillman’s masterpiece, Revisioning Psychology. As Heraclitus said so many centuries ago: “You will not discover the limits of the soul by traveling, even if you wander over every conceivable path, so deep is its story.” And the story goes on.
