Her publications include The Dream and Its Amplification, co-edited with Erel Shalit; The Human Soul (Lost) in Transition at the Dawn of a New Era; Eternal Echoes: Erich Neumann's Timeless Relevance to Consciousness, Creativity, and Evil; and The Splendor of the Maya: A Journey into the Shadows at the Dawn of Creation, published as part of the Fay Lecture Series.
