THE CENTER FOR CREATIVE ALTERNATIVES PRESENTS DREAMSTORIES: WORKING WITH DREAMS THROUGH GROUP PROCESS & THERAPEUTIC DRAMATIZATION A Drama Therapy Workshop Co-Led by Landy, Ph.D., LCAT, RDT-BCT & Nash, LCAT A dream is a theatre in which the dreamer is him/herself the scene, the player, the prompter, the producer, the author, the public, and the critic. ~C.G.

Jung ▪How do our dreams reflect unfinished business in our waking

lives? ▪In what ways can we be guided by the symbolic messages in our dreams? ▪How can we work with our dreams dramatically in order to make sense of the dream and the dreamer? ▪How can we apply our own experiences with dreams to professional work with clients? WORKSHOP: This workshop is about ways and means to work therapeutically with dreams in order to more fully make sense of our inner worlds. We begin with Jung’s premise that the dream is a theatre, a stage upon which we unconsciously enact our unfinished business. In this workshop, we will attempt to make the unconscious conscious through a process of therapeutic dramatization informed by an interactive group

process. The workshop will be both didactic and experiential as we work toward understanding how the enactment of the dream can help the dreamer live a more fully integrated life. FOR WHOM: Creative arts therapists, mental health practitioners, theater artists and all those who are interested in exploring the therapeutic component of theatre. ALL

PARTICIPANTS are asked to bring one dream with them. The dream can be a recurring dream, a key dream from the past, or a very recent dream. You may bring either a fully recalled dream or a fragment. If you do not recall a dream, we will help you find one. WORKSHOP LEADERS: J.
