"I wonder what my dreams mean."
"I get the worst nightmares, and hate going to sleep."
Learning how to understand your dreams can help you understand your inner world and unconscious motivations, help to process unresolved emotions and traumas, lead to a more integrated and balanced self, and inspire creativity and problem-solving.
It's like a fast-track to parts of you that have been stuck, and gives you a new way to understand what's keeping you in a rut.
Nightmares can feel so intense they wake you up or make you dread going back to sleep. They often show up during stressful times, after trauma, or when life is going through big changes.
Sometimes a nightmare is your mind trying to get your attention about something important. When we slow down and get curious about it, the dream can start to lose some of its power.
But if the dreams are just exhausting you, it’s okay to focus on sleep first. There are practical ways to reduce nightmares or make them much less scary. If you’ve been dealing with them night after night, sometimes what you need most is simply a good night’s sleep.
We would talk about your dream, what it might be symbolizing, and what that might mean for your life.
Dreams often arrive when something deep within us is ready to be known, and can be a valuable help in your counseling. I’d be honored to help you unravel their language.
