Dream Work

One potential resource, and one that many divorced/divorcing people have perhaps not yet considered as they find ways to heal from divorce, is the concept of dream work. Licensed Professional Counselor Anna Schaum provides services in this valuable area. I have had regular contact with Ms. Schaum, and I trust her integrity and commitment as she works with clients. Here is what Ms. Schaum provides as a resource on dream work, as excerpted from her website, www.annaschaum.com :

"Working from the depth perspective, we invite the symbols, scenes, and landscapes of our dreams to unfold as they will. We avoid applying rote analyses to dream interpretation, but rather seek to create an environment where the dream can come into the light to shed its unique and particular wisdom. In a supportive, collaborative group we use our creativity and intuition, artwork and enactment, to gather clues and glean guidance from these nightly gifts of the unconscious."

I encourage you to contact Ms. Schaum if you believe, as I do, that this work would benefit your healing. She provides individual and group work.

I would also add that I have neither received from, nor provided to, Ms. Schaum any compensation for the posting on this information. I have added it to the blog only because I find it valuable for my clients and anyone who accesses this family law blog as a holistic component of their transition.
