Secrets

by Julie Bondanza, Ph.D.


COURSE DESCRIPTION

"Secret keeping is not a black and white issue."


This short course gives four examples of secrets and how they affect and interact with life. Secret keeping is not a black and white issue. Sometimes secrets have a very damaging effect. On the other hand, secrets connected to the mystery of being are necessary. Thinking about our own secrets can be very illuminating.

What do people have to say



ANNE WARREN, PROGRAM PARTICIPANT

"...an impressive knowledge of myth and literature "

Julie brings to all of her courses an impressive knowledge of myth and literature and of our journey toward wholeness. Her compassion for the characters and their deepest needs, informed by her many years as a Jungian Analyst, helps us find ourselves in their stories and perhaps begin to have compassion for ourselves as well. Her candor and humor invite us all into lively conversations and a sense of community.   



PATRICK BIDIGARE, PH.D., PROGRAM PARTICIPANT

"I'm very fortunate to have participated in Julie's unique courses."

Julie uses great literature and films to explore the human condition through the lens of analytical psychology. Julie is open, blunt, accessible and irreverent; her erudition and compassion attract many deeply thoughtful and soulful people to her classes

"...an expert guide, terrific topics, dynamic discussions."

Taking a class with Dr. Julie Bondanza is like accepting an invitation to an educational adventure you had only imagined: an expert guide, terrific topics, challenging reading assignments, dynamic discussions, and no exams! Julie pilots her students, both newcomers and veterans, into a world of self-exploration through thematic prompts drawn from literature and depth psychology. Julie creates a welcoming classroom environment, in-person or virtual, as she weaves together the significance of literature with the value of one's perceptions and explorations. She enables her students to find their comfort levels of participation. I highly recommend taking a class with Julie and reaping the rewards of an investment in lifelong learning.



MILOS RIKIC, PROGRAM PARTICIPANT

"Julie Bondanza is an outstanding teacher and intellectual."

Julie's passion for reading and literature was given a meaning with the Jungian interpretations of novels and plays that she is continuously offering. Her therapeutic practice is deeply inspired by fictional and fantasy material making her competent in understanding the intricacies of the human psyche from a metaphysical perspective. I enjoyed her classes and always had deep insights in Jungian psychology and literature.
