He was known as a proponent of Projective Dreamwork, according to which participants in a dream group should not attempt to directly interpret the dreams of another participant.

He is often associated with his theory that dreams come 'in the service of health and wholeness', rather than merely to reflect the dreamer's life and ambitions, or scare or mock the dreamer.
