DREAM ANALYSIS IS A POWERFUL TOOL FOR EMOTIONAL HEALING, trauma recovery & PERSONAL GROWTH.

It can also be an exceptional source of insight into relationship difficulty, especially when there are repetitive relationship patterns that you’re experiencing in your life.

Dream analysis is a surprisingly effective way to deepen your ability to work through issues in your life in ways that are empowering, creative, and reliable. Understanding your dreams unlocks a treasure trove of inner wisdom and guidance that can provide insight, healing, and new directions of growth and personal development in your life.

Dream analysis sessions allow you to deepen your self-awareness and understanding, uncover areas of your life that need more attention, and identify recurring patterns in your life as they show up in your dreams as well as in your waking life.

What is dream analysis?

Dream analysis is form of one-to-one coaching that allows you to begin exploring how dreams provide a new window into your inner world. Have you ever had the experience of waking up from a dream feeling like something very significant just happened … even though you’re not sure what it all means? Dreams have long fascinated people from many cultures around the world. This is because dreams are a mysterious and potent portal into our inner wisdom and our unconscious minds. Dream analysis has a long history in psychology. And research shows that dream work can be very helpful in improving emotional wellbeing and healing from painful past experiences.

DREAMs are a bridge between your unconscious self and your conscious mind.

Working with your dreams in the supportive context of dream analysis provides a way to access the inner workings of your mind and spirit. Dreams offer a window into your unconscious mind, providing  valuable insights into the issues that you are currently experiencing in your life.

Many people find this approach more engaging, empowering, and enjoyable than traditional counseling as dream analysis helps you work through unresolved conflicts in your life, explore your unconscious thoughts, and process deep emotions, while also gaining new insights into yourself through your dreams.

Dream analysis helps you uncover repressed feelings and process painful past experiences.

Dream work can be an effective and gentle approach to working through painful experiences from the past. When it comes to trauma, dream analysis can open up new possibilities for healing, finding hopeful aspects of otherwise distressing or troubling dreams. Dreams often point toward new ways of working through personal challenges while also providing fresh solutions for difficult situations in life.

Dream exploration initiates the process of self-discovery, which makes it a powerful tool for personal growth and self-reflection. Cultivating a regular practice of working with your dreams gives you the opportunity to understand situations in your life in a deeper way, while also offering a new perspective. When you’ve been caught in repetitive patterns in your life, dreams will often provide fresh insights that allow you to step out of old patterns. This helps you to begin the process of aligning the choices you make in your life to reflect what matters most to you. Dreams can also highlight repeating patterns in your relationships, opening up a new awareness of barriers that need to be addressed in order to create the kinds of fulfilling relationships you deserve to have.

dreams can be a portal to connect with your most authentic self.

Dream work is also a powerful tool for self-reflection, personal growth, and self-discovery. When you cultivate a regular practice of working with your dreams, you will find that you’re able to understand life situations in a new and deeper way, recognize and work with patterns that appear in multiple areas of your life, and begin to align your choices and goals with a clearer understanding of what matters most to you. Dreams can be a portal to discovering your authentic self and cultivating a stronger connection between your authentic desires and the actions of your daily life.

Dreams communicate through symbols whose meanings are very particular to the dreamer. These symbols hold deep meanings for the dreamer, though it can be difficult to identify the specific meaning of dreams on your own (even for experienced dream analysts). As we begin to decipher the meanings of particular symbols in our dreams, we can understand their messages and develop a deeper understanding of ourselves.

Benefits of dream analysis

Engaging in dream analysis offers many benefits for emotional wellbeing, trauma healing, personal growth, and self-discovery. Not only can dream analysis deepen one’s relationship with oneself, it can also help uncover relationship patterns that are creating unhealthy relationships with others and offer insights into how to change these patterns.

By paying attention to the images and narratives in our dreams, we are able to recognize invitations to let go of old stories and embrace opportunities for personal growth and change. Dreams can serve as a source of inner wisdom, guidance and inspiration which is why dream analysis is an essential companion along the journey of personal transformation. Dreams can also reveal our inner desires and unexplored potential, as well as unresolved conflicts that we are continuing to work through.

about us

We help those with painful childhood experiences to heal your relationship with yourself, deeply connect with others, and learn the skills for having fulfilling relationships.

We’re the creators of the Five Relationship Archetypes. We’re also the hosts of the Alchemy of Connection podcast and the creators of the Relationship Yes! Test.

We founded the Institute for Trauma Informed Relationships to provide certification and consultation to therapists and coaches in Trauma Informed Relationship Counseling for Individuals and Couples.

Angela Amias, LCSW

Fulfilling relationships are an essential part of living a good life and yet, many of us (perhaps even most of us) have core wounds from childhood experiences that affect our ability to have the kinds of intimate relationships in adulthood that we long to have. As a licensed therapist, I’ve worked with hundreds of individuals and couples to help them heal past trauma and create more meaningful, satisfying relationships with themselves and with intimate partners.

Alongside Daniel, I developed the Five Relationship Archetypes as a model that reflects the different ways that childhood relationship trauma impacts our adult relationships. This model takes into account our unique and inborn temperaments as well as the kinds of messages we internalize during childhood—about ourselves and how we need to be in order to have relationships with others. And, more importantly, it lays out a path toward healing, by first helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself that you lost along the way … parts that weren’t accepted or safe to express when you were growing up.

It’s my belief that difficult experiences break us open to become more of who we are meant to be. As a trauma survivor myself, and as a therapist, I’ve made it my mission to walk alongside others as you find your path toward healing and discovering a life of more meaning and joy.

I’ve been a featured relationship expert in many publications, including Today, Oprah, Cosmopolitan, Well + Good, The Independent, Salon, Inc., Forbes, Toronto Sun, Women’s Health, Refinery29, and many others.

Daniel Boscaljon, PHD

The most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one you have with yourself. It’s also true that your connections with others can never be better than your relationship with yourself, which is why healing painful or traumatic experiences from childhood is such a vital part of having meaningful, satisfying relationships in adulthood.

My own personal search for how to cultivate a meaningful life came after years of feeling disconnected from others and from myself. Though I entered graduate school focused on the intellectual aspects of earning a PhD in Religious Studies (and then another one in English), I discovered along the way how to use what I learned to repair the inner fractures of my own life. As I reconnected with myself, I found that I was better able to connect with others as well.

As an award-winning teacher with over twenty year of experience working with individuals and couples, my mission is to translate theories of love into practical guidance that helps you create meaningful, fulfilling relationships. I’ve presented internationally on the topics of love and intimacy.

As a relationship expert, I’ve been featured in many publications, including NBC News, Newsweek, Harper’s Bazaar, MindBodyGreen,  Forbes, Salon, Fast Company, Business Insider, Fatherly, and AskMen.
