“Dreams help us to work collaboratively with our patients and can be a path to a deeper understanding of waking life. The deciphering of dream images and stories from dreams help us to better understand a patient's inner world. In clinical work, dreams may be a part of paving the way to change. This workshop will help clinicians to appreciate, elicit and work with dreams. Participants will: 1) understand dreams as an expression of the primary process, 2) be introduced to the concept of dreams as a wish fulfillment, as well some other aspects of the dream work, and functions of dreams, and 3) have an opportunity to discuss dream material, and how to use dreams clinically.”
