Description

J.L. Moreno, who founded psychodrama in Vienna in the early 1900s, described it as ‘a scientific exploration of truth through dramatic method’. Psychodrama can be done in a group setting or (psychodrama Aux Dux) in an individual session. When done as part of Group Psychotherapy, each group member is a therapeutic agent of the other. To be understood and held emotionally and physically by a group member not previously enmeshed in the story can be a healing experience. The psychodrama session has three parts: the warm-up, the action, and the sharing. In this training, participants will learn the basics of psychodrama and witness a demonstration of some of psychodrama’s powerful techniques. (this was added from the other session, ask if he wants to include it).

This is a 3-day therapeutic experience facilitated by a mental health professional and co-created with you, the participant, to meet your needs. This is not designed to be treatment or therapy. This is a personal growth workshop. This intensive experience is an opportunity to take a deep look into yourself, your coupleship, team or a situation that has been problematic or trauma
