Psychodrama: Tools for Working in Action

Saturday April 14, 2018 - 9:30 am to noon

Presented by Kathy Campbell, LMFT

This workshop will benefit LMFT, LPCC, LEP and LCSW licensees and pre licensees by bringing practical, applicable tools to clinicians through both experiential and theoretical discussion.

Overview of Workshop:

This experiential presentation will provide an in-depth introduction to psychodrama and related action methods to demonstrate the therapeutic benefits of spontaneous dramatization, role playing, and dramatic self-presentation in psychotherapy. Psychodrama offers a creative way for an individual or group to explore and solve personal problems.

This is an interactive presentation that will demonstrate several versatile, easy-to-learn psychodramatic tools tailored to specific populations of interest to attendees. Through role-reversal, timelines, doubling, and other structures, workshop participants will explore how psychodrama concretizes an emotional or psychological issue, giving it shape and form on a therapeutic stage. Psychodrama unlocks the wisdom of the brain and body together, opening pathways to spontaneity, community, empowerment, and new perspectives.

Learning Objectives:

1. Identify basic action structures such as doubling, role reversal, timelines, etc.
2. Distinguish two different ways to use Locograms or Spectrograms.
3. Understand how one specific action structure may be adapted/modified to one or more specific populations.
