Description
In this highly interactive session, we’ll have the opportunity to apply dream work to the process of dealing with trauma and addiction. This Jungian approach makes use of dreams to help us with our clients as they struggle to find ways to transform to a life of sobriety. Each dream, when examined in a manner that joins Freud with Jung, reveals four things: 1. What issue the dream reveals; 2. What question is most relevant for that issue; 3. A highly meaningful answer to that question; and 4. What specific actions to take to make that issue successful. This highly interactive presentation will transform how you help your clients overcome their addictions as well as provide you with solutions to your own life challenges.
Upon completion of this session, the attendee will be able to:
1) Describe the neuroscience of dreams.
2) Discuss how the "inner prosecutor" feeds the client’s shame and trauma.
3) Identify Jung’s structure of dreams into four segments to answer clients’ questions and apply dream work to help clients master their addictions and return to a life of sobriety.
