About Alicia

Midwife for the Soul. Guide through the Dark. Weaver of Myths.

My name is Alicia Domínguez, and I walk with people through life's deepest thresholds; those liminal spaces where identity unravels, certainty fades, and a new story waits to emerge.

I created Exploring Your Personal Myth because I know what it feels like to stand at the edge of a life you no longer recognise, to be overwhelmed by loss, illness, or transition, and to wonder if anyone else is willing to go deep with you.

I didn’t come to this work through easy answers.
I came to it through descent.

A Life of Initiations

As a mother, carer, and seeker, I have lived through layered initiations: the loss of a business, the complexities of chronic illness, an ectopic pregnancy, a twin termination, and the daily demands of supporting a partner living with a chronic heart condition.

These were not just life events; they were mythic turning points. Moments that shattered old identities and forced me to question everything I thought I knew.

Through this, I turned to the symbols, dreams, and archetypes that had always whispered to me from the shadows.

I have been researching Gothic literature for years, pursued a Master’s degree in Jungian psychology, written essays, presented webinars and began mapping the terrain of the soul through both scholarship and lived experience.

The Gothic Lens: Depth Over Display

I don’t offer quick-fix answers or shiny promises.

I offer depth. A space to examine the real, often raw, material of your life with honesty, imagination, and compassion.

This work isn’t about avoiding the darkness, it’s about learning to see in the dark.

As a guide, I don’t see myself as a coach or mentor in the traditional sense. Those words often feel too narrow. Instead, I’m more like the old lantern-bearer in Gothic tales: not here to lead you out of your story, but to walk beside you as you reclaim it.

What I Offer

Mythic Workshops & Retreats for those navigating personal thresholds (grief, loss, illness, creative blocks, or identity shifts).
A symbolic space where Jungian psychology meets the Gothic imagination.
A gentle invitation to descend into your inner world and return with meaning.

Whether you're facing an external change or an internal one, you don’t have to do it alone. You don’t have to rush to fix it. You can learn to listen, to wait, and to rediscover the myth beneath your name.

A Different Kind of Wealth

I’m not here to sell you a six-figure dream.
I’m here to offer something far more rare: the chance to become the author of your own myth, to find symbolic wealth in depth, and to feel witnessed in the story that’s quietly trying to be told.

Let's Walk Together

If you’re ready to explore your personal myth, to face your shadows, honour your pain, and follow the thread back to your own soul, you’re in the right place.

The descent begins here.
