Description:
This workshop will present the Gestalt and Senoi approaches to working with dreams which allow the client to experience what the dream is all about and resolve the conflict between the parts of self that are represented in the dream. From a Transactional Analysis perspective, dreams are created by the Child ego-state as a way of working with unresolved conflicts in a way that the Parent cannot interfere. The combination of the Gestalt and Senoi approaches offers a powerful tool for helping clients understand and work through the issues in their dreams and thereby change those issues in their waking life. In this workshop, we will go over these approaches and demonstrate them in depth. Participants will have an opportunity to work on their own dreams as well as work with other participants on theirs.
