Dreamwork Consultations

I provide one-time and package consultations of dreamwork, working from a theoretical foundation of Jungian and archetypal psychology, involving methods of association, amplification, embodiment (influenced by dreamwork strategies developed by Robert Bosnak), and expression through artistic mediums. Dreamwork has been a fundamental tool used to understand the unconscious since the development of psychoanalytic psychology by Sigmund Freud, and has been in use for centuries in time honored cultural traditions around the world long before the West appreciated its value. The dreamwork consultation services I offer are not therapy, nor should it substitute for therapy. Consultations include receiving an introduction to dream work and education that will enable the dreamer to begin working with their dreams on their own. This can include working with one dream, working with a series of dreams, working with recurrent dream patterns, or working with nightmares.  

Sometimes, dreams are best explored within the context of long-term psychotherapy– this is usually true if there is profound suffering in your life or if you have recurrent nightmares related to a trauma event. I may refer you to therapy if content from a dream suggests that therapeutic services are warranted. However, since the dream is the language of your own Self and inner wisdom, I regularly encourage my therapy clients to develop the practice of dreamwork into something that can be meaningfully practiced independently. Thus, I am able to offer dream consultations for non-therapy clients who are curious about their dreams or who want to learn more about dreamwork in general. Dreamwork may be for you if you are fascinated by your dreams, you experience vivid dreams and nightmares, if you are interested in developing an active dialogue with your unconscious, if you are looking for a deeper self-understanding and self-awareness, or if you are hoping to use your dreams in your creative work and writing.

Writing Coaching | Learn How to Access Your Unconscious

You know those writers who describe experiences with stories that seem to ‘just flow out of them like magic?’ Who seem to access the muse with ease? Or the writer who has more story ideas than they have time to write? While there is no way to guarantee outcomes, there are a number of ways writers and other creatives can ‘get out of their own way,’ by learning to silence the ego (your internal manager) and make room for the unconscious, the collective, and the Self. Your writing practice can be an adventure, rather than a source of stress. I provide writing coaching and consultation for writers and authors who would like to get out of their own way with their stories.  Expand your creative practice by learning methods of accessing your unconscious in your writing.
