Perls' dream work

Perls' Dream Work, developed by Gestalt therapy founder Fritz Perls, focuses on understanding dreams as a reflection of the individual's feelings and experiences. Instead of analyzing dreams symbolically, Perls encouraged individuals to explore their dreams through direct experience, treating each element of the dream as a part of the self. This method helps people gain insights into their emotions, desires, and unresolved issues by expressing and integrating these aspects into their waking life. By giving voice to different parts of the dream, individuals can achieve greater self-awareness and personal growth.
