| Summary: | Phyllis R. Koch-Sheras meets with a single mother who has recently started a new job and is worried about work success. She describes a dream in which she worries about completing minutes and other work tasks and measuring up to her predecessor. Koch-Sheras guides her through three steps of dream interpretation to better link external and internal worlds: 1) Tell the dream in the present tense; 2) translate the dream into dream language by activating verbs and using the phrase "part of me" to indicate that you created the dream; and 3) analyze each part of the dream to determine what message it brings to the client in the present. Koch-Sheras helps the client experience the parts of herself in the dream that indicate self-confidence and mastery. Through role playing and active interpretation, the client begins to accept her own strength and explore ways to reframe the dream in a positive way to bolster self-confidence. |
