Dr. Elena Vance is a Jungian Psychoanalyst and Evolutionary Astrologer with 15 years of clinical practice integrating natal chart analysis with depth psychology. She specializes in shadow work, emotional processing, and using astrology as a therapeutic tool for mental wellness.
Dr. Elena Vance bridges the gap between the clinical consulting room and the cosmic map. With a PhD in Clinical Psychology and a diploma from the Faculty of Astrological Studies, she operates at the intersection of mental health and metaphysical counseling. Elena rejects fatalistic predictions, choosing instead to view the birth chart as a blueprint for psychological development and soul growth. Her expertise lies in helping clients understand their "shadow" placements—particularly the 12th house, Pluto, and Chiron—to unlock repressed potential and heal trauma. She is a vocal advocate for ethical boundaries in spiritual communities, warning against spiritual bypassing and fear-mongering. In her writing, she translates complex psychological concepts into accessible astrological language, explaining how planetary archetypes influence subconscious behaviors. She works primarily with individuals undergoing significant life transitions, such as the Saturn Return or mid-life transits. Her approach empowers readers to use their charts not as a script of doom, but as a manual for self-actualization.
