School of Thought

Knowledge Lies in the Descent
Have you been hearing your whole life that you feel or think “too much”?
Do you feel like you don't quite fit in with your surroundings?
Are you neurodivergent (do you have autism, ADHD, high sensitivity, left-handedness, dyslexia, epilepsy, etc.) or do you feel an intense connection to the invisible world?
Do you always ask why things are the way they are?
Are you fascinated by horror, gothic themes, and the inexplicable?
Do you find it difficult to find people you can talk to about life and death without fear of judgment?
Then welcome to the School of Thought of the Gothic Psyche;
a space where you can explore both the external world and your inner world without being judged.
You don't need to be familiar with Gothic literature or Jungian analytical psychology to begin this symbolic journey of self-discovery.
You only need to want to learn to listen to what your most unconscious side wants to reveal to you.

The Body, Mind, and Soul as Gateways to Descent
At the School of the Gothic Psyche, we follow our own symbolic framework:
The Three Gates of Descent,
three paths where the personal and the mythical meet:
The Mind as an Archetypal Universe
Anxiety, overload, or neurodivergence are not mistakes. They are symbolic languages that reveal your inner architecture.
The Soul as a Daimonic Guide
Your longing and your fear are voices of the soul. Listening to them brings you back to your centre: not perfect, but authentic.

The Body as a Haunted House
Your body remembers. Pain, illness, and discomfort are not failures, but metaphors, locked rooms containing forgotten truths.
Each door invites you to descend with presence and soul, until you recover the voice you lost.
What You’ll Find in the Gothic Psyche School of Thought
A contemplative and transformative space for those who sense that their difference, pain, or shadow carries hidden meaning.
We're not here to repair you or offer quick fixes, but to guide you down the symbolic path to transform suffering into knowledge.
Through writings, videos, symbolic tools, and guided explorations, you will learn to:
-
Interpreting the symbolic language of the mind, body, and soul.
-
Transforming pain into meaning, without denying or simplifying it.
-
Reconnecting with personal myth and inner archetypes.
-
Dialoguing with symbols, images, and dreamscapes of the unconscious.
-
Navigating descent with clarity, responsibility, and self-compassion.
-
Living more authentically and soulfully, in resonance with your inner truth.
All of this is based on a Gothic, Jungian, mythopoetic, and Orphic approach.
No shortcuts. No false promises. Just a deep journey into the Gothic psyche: a school of thought for those who dare to descend.
Two Ways to Enter the Gothic Psyche
Every descent begins with an invitation. At the Gothic Psyche School of Thought, there are two main paths:
The Collective Path — Classes & Materials
Step into a shared chamber where you’ll find:
-
Essays, symbolic maps, and seasonal explorations.
-
Guided materials and tools to help you dialogue with your unconscious.
-
Invitations to courses, workshops, and future community spaces.
-
This is your place for self-paced discovery, guided by the framework of the Gothic Psyche.

How the Classes & Materials work
_edited_edited.png)
This is not traditional education. It is a school of thought where learning is lived, symbolic, and transformative.
Through essays, guided materials, courses and different explorations, you will:
-
Engage with the archetypal language of literature, myth, and art.
-
Discover symbolic tools to dialogue with your unconscious.
-
Explore neurodivergence, death, and the Gothic as mirrors of the psyche.
-
Follow seasonal themes and mythic cycles as collective guides.
-
Learn at your own pace, while remaining connected to a growing body of thought.
This path is for those who seek to study, reflect, and deepen their self-understanding through shared symbolic material.
It is the collective chamber of the Gothic Psyche.
How the Mythopoetic Journey Works
This is not therapy or a course.
It is a private 3-month descent. A transformational container for those ready to explore the deep symbolic roots of their suffering and reimagine their life from the inside out.
Across three months, you’ll be guided to:
-
Enter your story through six deep-dive 1:1 sessions (90 minutes each, online).
-
Receive personalised symbolic guidance and archetypal analysis.
-
Work with exclusive exercises and symbolic practices between sessions.
-
Map your suffering and patterns within mythic and Gothic frameworks.
-
Be supported through ongoing private contact and a closing integration.

WHO I AM AND WHY I CAN ACCOMPANY YOU
I am Alicia Domínguez, also known as Alice in Gothic Land.
I’m an English philologist with a Master’s in Jungian Psychology, and the creator of The Gothic Descent, a YouTube space where Gothic literature becomes a mirror for the soul.
But more than titles, my work arises from lived experience:
-
A body marked by grief and chronic illness.
-
A motherhood touched by death.
-
A life stitched together by forgotten myths that still pulse beneath the surface.
These are the roots of the Gothic Psyche School of Thought.
It is not an abstract philosophy, but a lived descent and a way of seeing suffering, shadow, and difference as thresholds to meaning.
Over the years, I’ve walked beside others as they ventured into their symbolic depths, helping them resurface with courage and a renewed connection to their story.
I’m not a therapist. I’m not a guru. I’m a woman halfway through life, wildly curious, deeply human, with a fierce belief that pain holds the key to transformation.
Because pain is not the end.
It is the threshold.
And crossing it changes everything.
An Integrative Meeting Place

My approach to the Gothic is integrative, and at BioConcept I've found a sanctuary for my body and a place to guide other souls.
This isn't just where I buy my organic food and select products that nourish my body; it's a space cared for by people who listen, recommend, and support with a genuine commitment to nature.
There, in addition to purchasing conscious products, you can enjoy in-person, symbolic explorations.
At BioConcept, you can book individual follow-up sessions, attend monthly writing and symbolic expression workshops, and immerse yourself in the first school of thought where Gothic becomes a mode of psychological revelation, a refuge and a bridge between neurodivergent minds and neurotypical society.
If you're in Catalonia or near Martorell, this is one of the few (or perhaps the only) centres that combines conscious eating, natural therapies, dietary advice, and in-depth work from the perspective of Gothic imagination and neurodivergence.
Note: If you live outside the area, don't worry: you can have an entirely online experience, but if you want physical contact, Martorell awaits you.
