Okay kiddo, do you know what dreams are? Sometimes when we go to sleep we have these movies or stories in our heads while we're sleeping.
Well, some people believe that those movies or stories are actually our brains trying to work through different things that happened to us during the day or things we're worried about.
That's where psychoanalytic dream interpretation comes in. It's when someone who is trained to understand how our minds work, called a psychoanalyst, tries to figure out what our dreams mean.
They might ask us questions about the people and objects in our dream, or what happened. They might also ask us about our feelings in the dream.
The idea is that our dreams can show us things that we might not be aware of while we're awake, and that understanding those things can help us feel better in our everyday lives. It's kind of like solving a puzzle to help ourselves feel happier and more comfortable.
