personification

Definition:

Personification is the projection of psychological content, such as emotions, traits, or archetypes, onto external objects or inner figures. These personified elements often appear in dreams or active imagination as characters or symbolic entities.

Example:

Engaging with personifications helps clients explore their inner world and integrate unconscious material. For instance, interacting with a recurring dream figure may reveal repressed emotions or unresolved conflicts.
