Dreaming on Purpose

Introduction

Whether you remember or not, every night you enter a rich and immersive reality beyond your physical senses.

Unconstrained by the limitations of waking thoughts, beliefs and actions, dreams can offer us and our clients creative insights, resources and possibilities which can enrich our inner and outer worlds.

This workshop is designed to familiarise you with the purpose of dreaming (including lucid dreaming) and how they can be utilised to cultivate greater self-understanding.

We will explore various techniques that can be used to benefit both yourselves as therapists and your clients.

We will show that dreamwork in the therapeutic encounter can be both brief and solution-focused, dispelling the long-held myth that dreamwork is overly-complex or a long-term therapy.

Develop your skills and confidence with this way of working.
