“On paper the interpretation of a dream may look arbitrary, muddled, and spurious; but the same thing in reality can be a little drama of unsurpassed realism. To experience a dream and its interpretation is very different from having a tepid rehash set before you on paper. Everything about this psychology is, in the deepest sense, experience; the entire theory, even where it puts on the most abstract airs, is the direct outcome of something experienced.”
C. G. Jung, "On the Psychology of the Unconscious." |

Dream groups are devised to give those people who may not want to pursue a personal analysis the opportunity to explore their dreams alongside others, in a supervised and gentle manner.
Ideally, a dream group is comprised of 6-8 people who meet weekly for two hours to discuss their dreams in a safe and considerate atmosphere led by both Howard Tyas and Karen Hodges. In a typical dream group session, each participant is given a chance to share a dream, after which one or two dreams are explored in depth. The weekly meetings continue for six weeks. The cost is $240.00 and is payable at the first meeting.
Dream group participants have the advantage of hearing many reflections and perspectives on a dream, although it is the dreamer who ultimately determines the dream's meaning for him- or herself.
