ABSTRACT
From an extensive analysis of dreams brought to supervision by therapists, we see how dreams in which patients appear are of great importance because they reveal critical steps in the therapeutic relationship, many of which occur outside of awareness (Hargaden). In this chapter we see how making sense of these dreams can help the therapist restore the reflexive function, activate the Adult, process psychological games and enactment. Listening to the parts of the therapist's ego states that produced the dream helps bring unconscious emotional aspects of the therapeutic relationship to awareness by defusing potential enactments and dangerous drop outs.
