Center for Social Healing & Cultural Praxis

“Why is it that just now especially we interest ourselves in psychology? The answer is, everyone is in dire need of it…we live in a time when there dawns upon us a realization that the people living on the other side of the mountain are not made up exclusively of red-headed devils responsible for all of the evil on this side of the mountain.”
- C.G. Jung
