Psychodrama is an action-based group therapy technique developed by Jacob Moreno. It is a spontaneous, experiential, therapeutic tool that is used to process our internal conflicts, recognize our strengths and weaknesses and build character through making healthy choices.

Psychodrama creates a cathartic effect through emotional release. In a safe, confidential environment, led by a facilitator, members role-play sensitive events from their lives that are holding them emotionally hostage, and trapping them in old destructive messages, behaviors and stereotypes.
 
A psychodramatic experience has the potential of changing the intrapsychic and somatic imprints of trauma by accessing the traumatic neural network and providing the client with a safe way of renegotiating their trauma and facilitating a completion of the central nervous system's survival responses (fight/flight/freeze).

Objectives
  1. Participants will learn about Psychodrama, its structure, and techniques applicable to work with individuals, couples and family.
  2. Participants will learn the basic structure of the warm-up, action and sharing in a psychodrama enactment session. Participants will learn the five elements in every Psychodrama.
  3. Understand sociometry, psychodrama and group psychotherapy skills to create safety and space for group members to be vulnerable and introspective. Learn how to create a new learning/response to an old situation and an adequate response to a difficult traumatic situation.
  4. Learn the Psychodramatic skills to process developmental wounds, life struggle issues, past, present and future potential to gain insight, cathartic release and new role training for a fulfilling life.
