What is Dreamwork?
Our dreams come to us unbidden. Psychologist Carl Jung believed that dreams were not simply random, unbidden nightly plays. Instead, he believed that, “The dream is a little hidden door in the innermost and most secret recesses of the soul.” Through dreamwork, we seek to interpret our dreams to help us find meaning in waking life and become self-actualized people. In essence, we learn to speak the language of dreams, as Jung called it, “the speech of the soul.”
You Might Seek Dreamwork if…
- You are seeking greater meaning or fulfillment in your life.
- You have an inkling that there are messages in your dreams but can’t quite figure out what they are.
- You are looking for your life’s purpose.
- You’re unsatisfied with life and seeking something more.
- You want to learn to listen to the wisdom in your unconscious.
- You hope for insight to help make changes in your life.
How Does It Work?
In dreamwork, we come together, typically one time per month, to look at one of your dreams. Your work throughout the month is to record your dreams. You bring one dream to examine. We talk about associations and possible meanings from your waking life, I ask you questions about the symbols in your dream, and we talk about what your dreams may mean. In the end, the hope is you’ll have more insight into the dream that you can bring into a therapy or spiritual companion session.
No previous knowledge of dreamwork is necessary because you are the expert on your own dreams. My approach to dreamwork recognizes that all dreams are contextual, based on your own life and experience. I can provide guidance on what your soul is trying to say, but only you can figure out what your dreams mean.
I am available to meet online via Zoom or in-person in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
