Midlife and the following “wisdom years” may be the richest, wildest, and most challenging stretch of your life. Midlife dreams often come with such force and abundance that I focus my practice on women in midlife and after.
Here are some questions that dreams love: What is most meaningful to me now? I’m feeling restless about everything: God, marriage, relationships, emotions, work… Who am I after I retire? Physical changes, challenges and illness – help! How do I best serve the world now?
Dreamwork has helped both me and my clients navigate through these challenges. It enables us to revision the crises of mid-life as profound opportunities for deepening the process of “turning into ourselves” for the benefit of self and others.
Dreams can:
Show you your blindspots and habitual patterns…and how to work with them.
Alert you to something off balance in your work, relationships, and health.
Improve relationships — as you quit projecting your “stuff” on to others and integrate it into your wholeness.
Shock you into a more capacious, compassionate perception of yourself and the world
Enter into a deeper relationship with the Mystery and experience life-giving Grace.
You have to be brave when facing all of these journeys. I’m here to help you to be brave and learn how to work with the wisdom coming from your dreams.
"Laura’s experience in dreamwork is at expert level, leading us to deeper understanding of ourselves and our place in the Kingdom of Highest Good.” - A.H.
Working One-to-One: 3 options
1. Standalone Sessions
Personalized 1-hour sessions:
You want to dip your toe into dream work and discover what your dreams offer. Maybe you’ve had a vivid dream or nightmare, and you want to explore it with a guide. In a regular session, I'll listen to your dreams and help you open up their layered significance. Remember, I do not tell you what your dreams mean: I help you find your own “Aha” which is the only reliable indicator of meaning for you. I’ll also help you find ways to work, play, and pray with your dreams so that you can integrate your insights into daily living and spiritual growth. $95/hr
Deep Dive 90-Minute Session:
Add extra time for art, writing, embodied dreamwork, or active imagination.

“Dreamwork has drawn back the curtain to reveal another dimension of living I didn’t know existed. This rich, deep experience has become my bliss, my guide. I started exploring dreams eight years ago in a group led by Laura and now I see her for individual sessions. Our conversations reveal spiritual connections and patterns of my life I would miss without Laura’s knowledge and insight.” - MHJ

Dreamwork and spiritual direction are not therapy, and I am not a therapist. These practices can shed light on an issue you’re working on in therapy, or open up new territory for therapeutic exploration. I stay within the limits defined by the Ethics Statements of the IASD and SDI*.
I am glad to offer referrals to Nashville area therapists if needed.
