The Dream Completion Technique® with clients

Success After Years

“I’m a therapist and some of my clients bring nightmares. I’ve lacked confidence working with nightmares, aware of how little years of my own therapy helped with them. But after trying your technique myself and benefitting from it, I feel like I now have a reliable tool for helping clients who are also struggling with this. This email is sounding a bit like a paid advertisement! It’s just such an effective technique.”

The Wizard of Dreams

“I continue to use your Dream Completion Technique with reported success. It was only last week I thought of emailing you when a client of mine called me a wizard after I supported her to come up with a new dream ending that really felt good on a gut level. And hey presto, no further nightmares/anxious dreams reported.”

The Lava Monster

“I assessed a young boy last week who has awful sleep terrors and never slept alone his whole life (aged 9) now and his parents were at their wits end. I did Dream Completion with him and he slept alone for 12 hours that night! Has been in own room ever since with lava monster to help with the bad dreams.”

Bereavement

“I work with bereaved parents and wanted to pass on the thanks of a mother I’ve worked with whose husband wouldn’t attend therapy but had been having nightmares and night terrors since their baby twins died. I explained the technique to my client and gave the YouTube link to your video. She supported her husband to work through the technique and it has worked literally overnight.”

Military Trauma

“I used this technique to work with nightmares in the military, it worked with teenagers, and with civilians. In total, I tried it with 15 people who had nightmares and recurring unpleasant dreams. The result exceeded all my expectations and made these people happier. Right at the session, people are filled with faith and strength in overcoming unpleasant dreams, and when we found their version of ending the dream, there was a breakthrough and a lot of pleasure.”

Marshmallow Crocodiles Defeated!

“I have been working with a 9-year old girl. She has some issues around school, and has recurring nightmares. Even though she is quite young she enjoyed your video and she did some drawings of how she wanted her dream to go – and popped them under her pillow. She wanted me to let you know that marshmallow crocodiles are not as scary as the ones she has been dreaming about for the last few years – and she would like to thank you very much”

A Simple Thank You

“Thank you for such a useful and simple technique. To be able to empower people to heal themselves is truly humbling.”

The Ukraine War

“Good day! My name is Myroslava Hasyuk, I am the head of the Department of Clinical and Rehabilitation Psychology of the Precarpathian National University. During the last year, I have been rehabilitating women who lost husbands and sons in the war in Ukraine. I use Dream Completion to stop nightmares and I want to note the effectiveness of the techniques even in severe cases of loss. Thank you.”

Peaceful sleep

“I worked with a retired prison officer and he stopped having nightmares using Dream Completion. This was so important for him as he was at the end of life and died a few weeks after therapy completed. He had peaceful sleep for the weeks he had left. Thank you.”

A wide range of issues

“I’m loving using this technique with a wide range of presentations, from PTSD to generalised anxiety. It is so effective and clients love that it gives them power and more control. Thank you.”

Ian’s Story

Army Veteran

It only took one night

“I just wanted to say that my nightmares stopped the night I put my new dream idea into practice. I had nightmares almost every night for 60 years, leaving me feeling sad or afraid on waking. I now wake feeling rested and relaxed – my husband can’t believe it! Thank you very much.”

Jean

Sexual Abuse

“I just wanted to say thank you for your technique for use with dreams. I was sexually abused by my father and in very difficult circumstances. My daily nightmares have completely gone.”

Deborah

It only required 15 minutes

“I am another happy customer. I had neo-natal trauma, and Dream Completion has shifted me from 5 nightmares per week to no nightmares. It only required 15 minutes of coaching in the first session – result!”

“I wanted to say how helpful the Dream Completion Technique has been for me. I am absolutely gobsmacked that I am beginning to sleep properly, perhaps for the first time in my life.”
