  • For years, therapists, coaches, and seekers have asked me:
    "Where can I study depth psychology without going back to grad school?”

    I get it. Traditional programs are expensive, overly academic, and often disconnected from lived, embodied experience. I created the Inner Compass Academy as an alternative: a depth psychology-based coaching program that’s practical, soulful, and immediately applicable to your life, relationships, and work.

    This isn't about memorizing theory. It’s about learning how to hold space ethically, guide transformation with integrity, and work with the unconscious material that shapes our lives in a way that honors both the personal psyche (Soul) and the collective.

  • The umbrella term for Jungian, archetypal and analytical psychology, depth psychology is known as “the psychology of the soul.” It isn’t just a method, it’s a way of seeing and working with the human experience.

    It explores the unconscious forces, generational patterns, inner archetypes, and collective stories that live beneath the surface of our thoughts, behaviors, and identities.

    Rather than focusing only on conscious thoughts or surface-level mindset shifts, depth work invites us to honor spirit, befriend the shadow, listen to dreams, engage the body, and remember the Soul’s journey.
