A single session of “dream work” can reveal a perspective that could take many sessions of “talk therapy” to achieve. You spend a third of your life asleep, having four to five dreams every night, so why not discover how your mind is helping you during that time? Dreams can be chaotic, confusing, and even frightening, so most people believe they are either meaningless, or it would be a chore to understand them. What people often do not realize is how practical and useful they can be. Our dreams help us to discover solutions to problems, and acquaint ourselves with talents and abilities we never realized we had. They also can help to release emotions, work through traumatic memories, and improve waking well being. Working with dreams can also enhance sleep so that we awaken more refreshed.
Many people do not remember their dreams, or even think they do not dream, although it has been scientifically shown that we do. Whether you have only a dream fragment, or years of remembered dreams, this work can help you shift your life, often far more quickly than other methods.
Dr. Bennett specializes in working with dreams in ways that respect that only the dreamer knows the meaning of a dream. She incorporates various methods and approaches (Jungian, Gestalt, Sethian, expressive arts). Individual sessions are available for dream work and a dream group may be available for those who want to experience the value of sharing dreams and working together with others.
