ONLINE CERTIFICATE PROGRAM AT PACIFICA GRADUATE INSTITUTE

finding ourselves in fairy tales: a narrative psychological approach

This program will run again in spring 2025

This 8-month graduate certificate program (which offers Continuing Education Credits) offers an archetypal approach to understanding and working with fairy tales. We’ll be guided by ideas and practices from the field of narrative psychology, and we’ll excavate fairy tales to interrogate our self-narratives, identify problem-saturated stories and then learn to rewrite them so that we can more fully participate in the process of our own becoming. We’ll use the Fairy-tale Heroine’s Journey as a framework for exploring the archetypal feminine in fairy tales and the ways in which these stories can illuminate the process of individuation.
