Understanding Dreams and Dreaming with Orna Hadary

Organised by:

British Psychoanalytical Society (incorporating the Institute of Psychoanalysis)

Description

‘In this series of 4 seminars, I would like to concentrate on developments in our understanding of dreams and dreaming in contemporary psychoanalysis. I hope to bring to life the sense of riddle and surprise that telling a dream evokes, and the ways we explore the dream in the psychoanalytic session. I hope to convey the special place dreams still have in the psychoanalytic encounter. We will discuss the content of dreams as well as their functions, form and quality. We will furthermore consider the differences between dreams and daydreams’

Participants will be encouraged to bring clinical examples of working with dreams for the discussion. We will aim to make links between the theoretical ideas and clinical work.
