Dream Work

Our dreams are messengers. When we remember a dream, we tend to remember it for a reason. Our dreams carry a dwell of information, which our conscious mind, sometimes, does not have access to. This is because our defenses are much lower at night, so our dreams can symbolize ideas and patterns, which we can less easily access in our waking life. Our dreams can be catalysts towards deeper understanding, insights and change, since they try to signal us about patterns, issues, and beauty way before our conscious mind picks up on it.

You might have noticed that at times it is not that easy to substract meaning from our dreams. They can be very symbolic and therefore hard for our logical mind to understand. Dreams speak a language that we are not taught in school, and therefore, the dream world stays an undecipherable riddle for most of us.

Through my psychoanalytic education, I have learned about different theories around dream work, such as by Sigmund Freud or Carl Gustav Jung. However, we do not learn to understand dreams solely through reading the theory - we must start practicing to understand the language of our own dreams. We must learn to speak the symbolic language.

Through my theoretical and practical background in dream work, I offer to support you in your process of understanding the symbolic language of dreams. Working with dreams allows you to understand parts of yourself that you do not fully grasp with your logical mind alone, and through this work we encounter deeper layers of understanding, which can lead to shifts in perspectives and experiences. By working through your dreams together, you will naturally learn how to "read" dreams and symbolic language. We will explore theories by C. G. Jung as well, which offer a solid foundation for dream work.

One session (45 Minutes) of Dream Work is 80,- and reflects the time of the session, as well as the time I dedicate to prepare for the session and after-care, to ensure that I embody the sensitivity and presence which is necessary for my work.

The Eye of Time (1949) by Salvador Dalí.
Salvador Dalí's art work was inspired through the imagery he received in his dreams.
