We spend a lot of time discussing dreams - almost every session, as I find it fascinating and my T is psychoanalytically inclined. She always says its more important what I think it means than what she thinks it means. Very annoying, as I can never figure it out. I occasionally have dreams about her and about therapy. But even when the dream is about someone else, she says that person represented her. I was telling her an erotic dream I had about a beautiful girl I haven't seen for years. And she said it represented her! She's probably right, but it killed me that she came out with that. One or two of the interpretations have been useful, but mostly my dreams seem to reaffirm things I know anyway, eg, I adore my therapist or I'm confused about my sexuality.
