Dream Appreciation: Experiencing a Psychodynamic Approach to Dream Groups

Jennifer Kristen, LMSW

Join Jennifer Kristen, LMSW for an experiential evening of dream group work using Montague Ullman’s approach to dream appreciation.

Participants will be guided through the Ullman Method of Dream Appreciation by experiencing the process together as a group. This is not a training in the method, but an opportunity to participate in an experiential demonstration of a relational approach to dream work. Through curiosity, personal associations, and shared reflection, participants will experience how dream material can unfold and deepen within a group setting.

Jin Shin Jyutsu is a gentle, meridian‑based modality that supports nervous system regulation through light touch on specific energetic pathways. It offers therapists a simple way to help clients (and ourselves) down‑shift physiologically. Even the basic finger holds and flows can be integrated into sessions as micro‑interventions that deepen grounding, increase interoceptive awareness, and create a felt sense of safety. I’m excited to share how this simple tool can support somatic integration in the therapy room-- be prepared to play and relax together!

In person event. Location given at registration.
