    Who We Are

    The SGV-CAMFT Dream Circle is a focused and intimate gathering designed for therapists to explore the significance of dreams. Led by experienced facilitator Kathryn Bikle, this recurring group offers a space to learn practical techniques for understanding dream imagery and applying those insights to navigate personal and professional challenges.

    As a part of the SGV-CAMFT community offerings, the Dream Circle provides a unique opportunity for members and non-members alike to delve into the subconscious in a supportive environment, fostering self-discovery and a deeper understanding of the psyche. With its limited size, the group encourages connection and a more personalized experience in unraveling the mysteries held within our dreams.

    What to Expect

    You can expect an insightful exploration into the realm of dreams with the San Gabriel Valley CAMFT Dream Circle. Led by Kathryn Bikle, a seasoned Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Dream Circle groups offer a deep dive into how dream work can enrich your therapeutic approach or personal understanding of your inner landscape.

    Kathryn also brings valuable expertise as a Somatic Experiencing® Trauma Practitioner, Certified Labyrinth Facilitator and BodyDreaming® Practitioner. She is sensitive to the body's role in processing experiences and has a holistic and symbolic approach to inner exploration, and she brings this sensitive, holistic, and symbolic approach to her work as facilitator of the SGV-CAMFT Dream Circle.

    When We Meet

    The Dream Circle usually meets on the third Saturday of the month in Monrovia.

    About This Meet-Up
