different dream work models. Thus, the focus of this literature review will be a specific look at... more different dream work models. Thus, the focus of this literature review will be a specific look at a few of the theoretical models for working with dreams, as well as a review of the empirical research that has investigated utility, efficacy, and outcome's of specific dream work models. Due to the space constraints, this review will necessitate certain lacunae; in the interests of researching in depth specific theories, omissions of certain approaches or perspectives will be necessary. That said, a more thorough examination of Jungian and post-Jungian (Archetypal) approaches will largely displace a focus on historic and contemporary psychoanalytic (Freudian) models. While certain neurobiological studies of the nature of dreaming will be included, these will also not be exhaustive. Of specific interest to this current work will be Jungian, Post-Jungian, Existential-Phenomenological, and Cognitive-Experiential approaches to working with dreams within psychotherapy. We will seek to elucidate the theoretical understandings of these approaches, and examine the clinical use and efficacy of this type of work.
