The Dream, the Dreamer, the Therapist - Deborah Ford
- A Guide to Understanding Dreams
Have you ever woken up from a dream that lingers in your mind, leaving you wondering what it meant?
You're not alone. Dreams carry powerful messages from the unconscious, but they often feel mysterious or puzzling. What if understanding your dreams could unlock deeper insights into your life and emotions?
In The Dream, the Dreamer, the Therapist, psychotherapist Debbie Paulik Ford draws on her 30 years of practice to help you uncover the hidden meanings within your dreams. Through real-life case studies and her own personal experiences, Debbie reveals how dreams can provide clarity, healing, and personal growth.
What's in it for you?
- Learn to recognise and interpret common dream symbols, from flying, dying and pregnancy to common types of dream, such as nightmares and lucid dreams.
- Understand how your dreams can guide you through major life transitions, from illness and anxiety to moments of deep transformation.
- Gain practical tips on keeping a dream journal to begin making sense of your dreams in your waking life.
- Discover how engaging with your dreams can lead to greater self-awareness, emotional healing, and even spiritual insight.
Debbie's compassionate approach invites you to dive into the rich landscape of your dreams, explore the messages they hold, and use them as a tool for navigating life's complexities. Whether you're seeking a deeper connection to your inner self or curious about the world of dream interpretation, The Dream, the Dreamer, the Therapist offers an intimate and transformative guide to understanding the stories that unfold while you sleep.
This little book on dreams is such a joy. Debbie Paulik Ford lets dreams speak for themselves. It is not an academic treatise on dreams; it is a celebration of dreams. This book shows us how to listen and attend to these missives from the unconscious, allowing them to inform and enrich conscious life. Debbie shows it is not just a receptive, passive listening, but an active engagement that brings the wisdom of the dream to bear in our daily lives. It is a book about therapeutic work with dreams, but although very useful for the clinician, it is not just for the therapist. It is a guide for anyone interested in engaging with dreams on a deeper level. Debbie shows us how she has actively used dream interpretation in her own life and in her work with clients.
