Two theoretical principals (causal and constructive) of the interpretation of the meaning of the unconscious based on dreams are considered in the article. The research deals with the psychotherapeutic work with dreams from the point of substantial and procedual approaches. Using the substantial approach, the accent is made on the information, interpretation, understanding of the message from the unconscious. Using the procedual approach, the content of the dream goes to the background and attention is paid to the dreamer's feelings, emotional experience concerning his/her dream. In the procedual work the dreamer comes across depressed, unconscious emotional experience and has a possibility of their realisation and expression.
