Valerie Johns, MA, MFT, is a psychotherapist, poet, artist, author, and creator of the Dream Box methodology. For more than 35 years, she has explored the relationship between dreams, creativity, and the unconscious, helping people discover meaning through the symbolic language of their inner lives.

She is the author of the poetic memoir Ashes in the Milk and her newest book, Night Flights: The Poetry of Soul Retrieval, a collection inspired by decades of dream journals and reflections. Through her writing, teaching, and psychotherapy practice, Valerie invites readers to approach dreams not as random events, but as a source of insight, imagination, and self-discovery.

Her work bridges psychology, poetry, and the mystery of the dream world, encouraging a deeper relationship with the unconscious and the stories that shape our lives.
