Dreamworkers
People who study the formation of dreams and then analyze them are called dreamwork interpreters. As mentioned before, dreamwork interpreters must work backwards from the conscious to the unconscious. Since they are not the ones who saw the dream, they use free association with their clients. Free association is where the client describes the dream and relates as many aspects of it to their life as possible. The interpreter listens intently and once they have gained all the information about the manifest content of the dream, they are able to analyze the results. While the interpreters are listening they are looking for slips of the tongues. This allows the interpreter to gain information about the client that they may not be aware of or be willing to share.
