Portland, OR Author's Poem Selected For Publication In "Psychoanalytic Perspectives" International Journal
 

PORTLAND, OR, May 2, 2011: Melina Costello has received word that her poem entitled "Gardenia" will be printed in the special Love Calls issue of the journal "Psychoanalytic Perspectives" (www.psychperspectives.com) in the Creative Literary section. There were over 250 submissions of poetry. The issue with Costello's poem will be available in Fall 2011. 

Melina Costello has devoted twenty-five years to the practice of meditative disciplines, exploring psychologically sensitive ways to integrate diverse modes of spiritual experience. A poet, children’s book author and teacher in early childhood education, she is currently pursuing studies in Counseling Psychology at Marylhurst University and lives with her husband in Oregon. Costello's book, Seeking the God of Ecstasy: A Spiritual Journey of Sexual Awakening, with a forward by esteemed Jungian analyst Robert A. Johnson, is an account of Costello’s dreamscape encounters with the half-mortal, half-god Dionysus, a mythological archetype who is her guide and trickster companion in the journey of individuation. The book is available through Amazon; review copies are available by contacting Melina Costello.
