1:1 Dreamwork
Engaging With Your Dreams
I have been a vivid dreamer all of my life. It wasn’t until halfway through my training in evidence-based sleep health that I discovered a different and deeper relationship with dreams. During our dreamtime, we are processing some of our most important social and emotional content from our entire lives. Many different cultures and religions from around the world also believe that dreaming connects us to something beyond ourselves. Sharing dreams allows us to gently explore our own inner landscapes and practice sharing intimate and important parts of ourselves that often go overlooked.
As a dreamworker, I am not here to interpret your dreams for you. Instead, we walk through your dream at a pace you set, while I listen with curiosity and kindness. I am here to travel by your side as a witness while you journey into yourself more confidently and compassionately. For those newer to intentionally sharing their dreams, I am happy to help dreamers skill-build and foster relationships with their own, unique dream life. For experienced dreamers, I am here as a curiously loving witness, and mirror.
Ultimately, engaging with our dreams is an act of curiosity and creativity. I look forward to help catch and celebrate whatever daytime or nighttime dreams you're hoping to deepen your relationship with.
