James Hillman

James Hillman was a renowned psychological thinker and author who emphasized understanding the human soul beyond traditional mental health models. He believed that the mind is rooted in deep, mythic, and poetic aspects of life, rather than just biological or behavioral factors. Hillman encouraged exploring personal meaning, imagination, and cultural stories to better grasp individual experience. His work challenges the idea of mental illness as solely a medical problem, advocating for a more nuanced view that incorporates the richness of human depth, dreams, and symbolism in the pursuit of psychological well-being.
