Master's and Doctoral Programs in Depth Psychology, Counseling, Clinical Psychology, Mythological Studies, Consciousness, and the Humanities

Pacifica Graduate Institute is thrilled to announce the launch of two fully online degree programs, the first in our nearly 50-year history. An online version of the existing MA/Ph.D. in Jungian and Archetypal Studies is currently accepting students for Spring 2025. A new MA/Ph.D. program in Psychology, Religion, and Consciousness is accepting applications for Fall 2025. Adding to Pacifica’s eight graduate degree programs currently offered in low-residency or hybrid models, the new fully online offerings demonstrate our commitment to making depth psychological education accessible to all by providing opportunities to learners who seek additional flexibility while still engaging with meaningful scholarship and practice, esteemed faculty, and collaborative cohorts.

David Odorisio, Ph.D., currently the Chair of Pacifica’s Mythological Studies program, will be leading the launch of a new M.A./Ph.D. program in Fall 2025, in Psychology, Religion, and Consciousness. We’re delighted to find out more about this ground-breaking development. 

Artist in Residence for the M.A. Depth Psychology and Creativity with Emphasis in the Arts and Humanities program (DCH), Pamela Brown is an artist and poet who takes inspiration from the desert of Southern Utah. I’m delighted to speak with her about her art, Pacifica, and her residency.

Pacifica Graduate Institute (PGI) is excited to announce the launch of Pacifica Extension and International Studies (PEIS). PEIS is the reimagined continuing education arm of Pacifica, offering an innovative array of both online and on-campus learning experiences based in depth psychology. PEIS is geared toward traditional and non-traditional learners committed to a more conscious approach to personal and professional development. The Extension programs provide affordable access to renowned depth psychology scholars and practitioners whose innovative research and expertise are shaping the future of depth psychology in response to today’s global challenges. 

“On Veterans Day, we pause to acknowledge and honor the courage, sacrifice, dedication, and needs of those who have served in our Armed Forces. Veterans hold a unique perspective shaped by profound experiences and challenges, and their commitment to defending our freedoms has paved the way for countless opportunities. In our depth psychological community, we also recognize the immense effects of war on the individual and collective psyche and aim to positively support the needs of our veterans, particularly in mental health, as we work toward a peaceful society.”-Deneatrice A. Lewis, PGI Vice President of People, Culture, and Belonging
