DREAM GROUP
AWAKENING THE SYMBOLIC LIFE
6-Week Jungian Dream Group
Join an experiential depth-psychology group exploring dreams as pathways to the unconscious, the archetypal field, and thus a deeper knowing of oneself.
OVERVIEW
Dreams are living communications from the psyche. In the Jungian tradition, dreams reveal the symbolic life unfolding beneath waking consciousness: conflicts and complexes, emerging potentials, archetypal patterns, and the psyche’s own movement toward meaning and wholeness.
Our six-week Jungian Dream Group offers a guided, clinically grounded, and experiential exploration of dreams using depth-psychological methods. Participants will learn how to work symbolically with their own dreams while deepening their understanding of the unconscious, archetypes, and the process of individuation. Upon request, there are opportunities for extended or tailored groups—more theoretical or more experiential.
Groups are suitable for clinicians, students, and individuals with a psychological orientation who seek an intimate engagement with dream material. No prior experience with Jungian dream work is required, though familiarity with psychological language is helpful.
EXPLORATION
Across six weeks, we will work with participants’ dreams using core Jungian approaches, including:
The nature and function of dreams in analytical psychology
Symbol and image as expressions of the unconscious
Complexes and compensatory dream activity
Archetypal motifs and mythic amplification
The ego–Self relationship as revealed through dreams
The role of dreams in individuation
FORMAT
Each session will include:
Brief theoretical framing grounded in Jungian thought
Presentation of one or two participants' dreams
Group amplification and symbolic exploration
Clinical and analytical reflections
Space for personal integration and questions
Groups emphasize respectful listening, symbolic imagination, and depth rather than interpretation driven by technique alone.
