15. Benjamin the Dream Wizard: Dreamwork and the Edges of the Known

During his career working in acute mental health facilities, Benjamin helped people in psychotic states. His professional and personal curiosities led him to developing a unique passion for interpreting and exploring dreams. Benjamin is one of those rare gems who’s calm and collected in a crisis, and comfortable exploring the edges of sanity. He believes his autism has aided him in developing his unique skillsets with logic and curiosity. In this episode, we explore the edges of the known, including hallucinations, misophonia, dementia, fantasy, substance abuse, autism, and parts work. 

Benjamin Davidson (aka “The Dream Wizard”) is a psychological professional. After over 20 years experience in mental health, he now offers eclectic dream analysis through Dreamscapes Podcasts, available on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts. He also curates, edits and sells historical dream literature.
