A dialogue between the conscious and unconscious
An analyst helps you to establish a dialogue with the unconscious by listening closely to what you are saying, and by providing a supportive mirror so you can recognize the deeper meaning in the issues you are facing.
Another way to access the wisdom of the unconscious is through imagery and dreams. The mind often speaks to us in images and symbols, not words. Learning to be aware of images that spontaneously emerge into your consciousness is healing and opens you to a world of useful information about yourself.
