A Clinician’s Guide to Dream Therapy, 2nd Edition, provides psychotherapists and mental health clinicians with a systematic textbook for incorporating dreamwork into clinical practice. Author Leslie Ellis, a psychotherapist with expertise in somatic approaches, dreamwork, and nightmare treatment, translates core principles of dream science into functional clinical interventions.
The volume establishes a firm grounding in the science and neuroscience of dreaming alongside practical clinical dreamwork techniques. It specifically addresses the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder nightmares by examining how traumatic dream patterns relate to the autonomic nervous system and principles of polyvagal theory.
This second edition features updated content and new case studies that demonstrate active therapeutic application. The text delivers structured guidance and clinical protocols designed for conducting dream therapy with clients in both individual sessions and group settings.
