This site presents a completed doctoral dissertation in clinical psychology examining Tarot as a symbolic and imaginal process within psychotherapy. Situated within depth psychological and existential traditions, the research investigates how sustained engagement with archetypal imagery shapes reflection, emotional articulation, and meaning-making in the context of psychological distress.

The study employed a mixed-methods design grounded in Carl Jung’s analytical psychology and Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy. Tarot was approached not as a predictive system but as a structured symbolic medium through which participants encountered recurring psychological themes, internal conflicts, and existential concerns. Quantitative symptom measures were examined alongside qualitative accounts of lived experience, with particular attention to processes associated with individuation, shadow integration, synchronicity, and the construction of personal meaning.
