Over the past 20 years, Dr. Zich has been developing meditative drawing and painting as a method for gaining an intuitive understanding of the reality of the psyche. Her articles on dialoguing with the unconscious have been published in Jung Journal: Culture & Psyche, Journal of Sandplay Therapy, and Dream Time. Her Vision Journey paintings have received many awards and been featured in solo art exhibits sponsored by the California Institute of Integral Studies, the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco, the Mill Valley Arts Council, and the Dream Institute in Berkeley. Her special interest is in the use of imagery in psychotherapy, in personal growth, and in the creative process, with particular emphasis on cultivating a dialogue between consciousness and the unconscious.
