Her dissertation, entitled Mythic Mapping, focused on the creation of a self-directed program for trauma survivors to embark on an individuation journey, through the creative examination of myth. No stranger to trauma herself, Rev. Dr. Hancock is a survivor of sexual violence, as well as a life-threatening kidney disease, and a forced Caesarean section that left her with terrible postpartum depression after the birth of her son. Her current research focuses on the emergence of the Witch Archetype in modern times, and the pedagogical exploration of the Tarot as spiritual practice. She is dedicated, wholeheartedly, to helping people heal; building bridges between communities; bringing people together to honor the sacred in all things; supporting environmental advocacy; and helping women embody all parts of their trues selves.
Rev. Dr. Pamela Hancock is also a published author and multi-media artist, workshop facilitator, and the Leader of a new Mystery School in Archetypal Witchcraft, called INHABIT, that holds Witches’ Sabbaths, public Seasonal Rituals and classes in her community. She lives in the mountains of Southern California, on the land of the Yuhaaviatam people, with her husband, John, an engineer and musician, and their young son, Hudson.
