Goddess and the Shaman

A psychotherapist explores the nonphysical realms and shows how they can be useful tools in psychological and physical healing, with the Goddess representing the numinous realm and the Shaman as the archetypal figure who can access the other side to bring back knowledge and healing. Publishers Marketing: Explore the resurgence of magical and shamanic healing in the world today. Recovering from disease, pain, and mental illness often means addressing otherworldly causes such as soul loss, soul fragmentation, or invasive spirits. Interviewing modern shamanic practitioners and sharing her own experiences as a psychotherapist and healer, author J. A. Kent, PhD, shows how ritual practice and mystical experience can be used as tools to foster profound spiritual and psychological growth. Through exploration of otherworldly phenomena, the Western mystery traditions, and the author’s psychotherapy case studies, this book shows how the Goddess represents the numinous reality of the universe whil
