Clarissa Pinkola Estés

Washington Square, Savannah, GA

“Within every woman there lives a powerful force, filled with good instincts.”

Clarissa Pinkola Estés is a Jungian analyst, storyteller, and author who explores the instinctual nature of the psyche through myth and story.

What She Believes

She believed that healing comes through remembering, not fixing.

That within us is a deep, instinctual knowing—
often buried, but never lost.

Why She Matters

Clarissa reconnects us to the wild, intuitive self.

At the Bluff, this voice reminds us that not everything needs to be solved.

Some things need to be listened to.
