The Workshop: This training provides practitioners with hands-on experience working with their own dreams and facilitating others. I demonstrate dream work and review the facilitation process as well as coach participants in the facilitation with one another. Professional issues in dream facilitation are discussed alongside the personal and transpersonal scope of the dream. Prior experience with Gestalt is recommended.
