Our own healing proceeds from that overlap
of what we call good and evil, light and dark.
It is not that the light element alone does
the healing; the place where light and dark
begin to touch is where miracles arise.
This middle place is a mandorla.

Robert A. Johnson

The Mandorla Institute offers programs and services in psychology and psychotherapy, theology, religious experience and pastoral ministry.

Our programs and services are spirituality-centred and seek to be responsive to the cultural dimensions of Australian society.

The institute was originally called The Centre of Spirituality and was established following the first Jungian Psychology & Spirituality Conference (Journey Into Wholeness Conference) held in Melbourne in January 1992 in order to continue offering similar programs.

Other programs offered since then include the First Australian Enneagram Conference (Melbourne 1994) and a second Jungian Psychology & Spirituality Conference (Melbourne 1996).

Bidden or unbidden, God is present

Every moment one lives is different from the other. The good, the bad, the hardship, the joy, love and happiness are all interwoven into one single indescribable whole that is called life. You cannot separate the good from the bad. And perhaps there is no need to do so, either. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
