Spontaneity and creativity are essential for survival. What happens when we, or our clients, feel "stuck"? What helps? In this day of growth and renewal we will
identify resources - cultural, spiritual, internal and interpersonal and explore what keeps us from accessing them. We will learn psychodramatic methods to work with ourselves and
others.
What is Psychodrama? Psychodrama is an experiential method of exploring our private and public worlds in a multidimensional, creative way. It helps you safely express
feelings, develop insights and practice new, desired behaviors.
Who should attend? This workshop and training is appropriate for those new to psychodrama, as well as experienced practitioners; to professionals and students
in mental health and a variety of other fields; and those wanting to further their knowledge of psychodrama.
Join us as together we take steps in creating new and life affirming narratives through the healing power of the arts and creativity. No acting skills needed and
participation is at your level of comfort.
