Temple of Dreams is a drop-in circle to explore the wisdom of your dreams through symbol, sensation & embodied reflection.
About this Event

Each night while we sleep, our unconscious speaks in images, stories, and symbols. What happens when we bring these dreams into community and let them be witnessed?

In this bi-monthly Jungian-inspired circle, we’ll explore the wisdom of our dreams together. Participants are invited to bring one dream—recent or from the past—that they’d like the group to reflect on. You don’t need to prepare anything formal—just come ready to share the dream aloud and stay open to what arises when others listen and respond.

Each gathering is unique. The makeup of the circle changes week to week, creating a dynamic and fresh space for new perspectives and shared exploration.

This is not about analyzing or decoding dreams. Instead, we’ll use curiosity, metaphor, and collective reflection to deepen connection with the images and feelings that emerge. Whether you’re a longtime dreamer or just beginning to pay attention, you’re welcome here.

Tickets are in-person only, Sliding scale $15 - $30 with no one turned away for lack of funds.


Melissa Cetlin (she/her) is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and visual artist based in Berkeley, CA. She specializes in depth-oriented and relational therapy, with a particular passion for dreamwork, grief, psychedelic integration, and helping people reconnect with their inner wisdom. Melissa’s approach blends psychodynamic insight with a gentle, embodied curiosity—inviting clients to listen to the messages of the unconscious and move toward greater self-trust.

Melissa holds a master’s in counseling psychology from the Wright Institute and has completed specialized training in ketamine-assisted therapy, as well as coursework in Jungian dream analysis. She believes in the power of dream circles to hold symbolic meaning, collective reflection, and personal transformation—and is honored to steward this shared space of imagination and soul.
