I am back on my blog after a delay of several months. The reason I have been away is that I have been writing, writing, and writing which makes coming to the blog that much harder. I have submitted several research articles which I believe are important for dream research. One is an article on the dreams of women with breast cancer, another is an article that has been accepted for publication for April/2010, which is the relationship among dreams and waking day infidelity. I am also working on an article comparing the dreams and discovery of Italians and Canadians-both students and therapy participants. Other interesting work has included collaborations with colleagues in the United Arab Emerits examining religious/spiritual content in dreams between UAM and Canadians.
The research has continued to flourish over the past months in preparation for the IASD conference in July. Here I will be presenting research with my colleagues on dreams and anxiety, dreams and relationships, dreams across cultures...and others. The research field is growing and I have had the pleasure of working with several teams around the world in preparation for IASD.
So, I have not been at my blog because of my writing in other areas. I feel ready to come back to it now to share the new and exciting findings that are coming up for dream work.

About Me
- Teresa L. DeCicco
- I am a professor, author, researcher and applied clinician in Psychology. I became interested in the science of consciousness and dreaming while working with cancer patients, years ago. I noticed that the cancer patients I worked with wanted to talk about their dreams. Though I was not particularly interested in dreams at the time, patients continued to bring them up; session after session. I finally decided to explore the science of dreaming and found a whole world of knowledge. The science of dreaming was being studied all over the world by a vast array of scientist! This is when my own scientific explorations began. I studied dreams and then designed techniques for linking them to waking day life in meaningful ways. My work became focused on helping people with self-discovery and self-change. Dreams can help with health issues, relationships, work-related issues, and bring life-changing information into the conscious mind. Dreams are a problem-solving mechanism that will bring forth novel solutions. My work is my way of sharing what I have learned from research and practice, with the world.
