Our article refers to a bibliographic research that has as its theme the Jungian analysis of dreams as a technique used in psychotherapeutic care and the record of this work in the Latin American literature of the last ten years, from 2008 to 2018. In this way, the general objective of this study is to examine the use of this practice by Jungian psychotherapists and the specific objectives are three: 1. To carry out a bibliographic survey of Latin American publications that refer to the use of dreams as a clinical tool for analysis. 2. Check the content that has been researched on the subject. 3. To identify the importance of dreams in psychotherapeutic practice. For this purpose, three databases were examined: 1. Virtual Health Library (VHL). 2. Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (Lilacs). 3. Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) that refer to the dream concept linked to the theoretical construction of Analytical Psychology.
