and to use it in the service of developing greater mutuality with others.

of interaction and interpersonal dynamics (their own and others)

* Provides the means by which trainees can develop greater interpersonal flexibility

in a range of settings.

* Is for people with varying amounts of psychodrama experience.

* Is iterative, allowing for a gradual integration of concepts and practice.

* Is underpinned by role theory, systems theory and principles of group work.

Curriculum

Each workshop has a particular focus which relates both to the curriculum and the needs and

development of trainees in the training group.

The training sessions involve supervised practice, working in the here-and-now of the group

and developing the capacity to enter into the worlds of others with sensitivity and attunement.

Participants engage in experiential learning as a group member, auxiliary, protagonist and director.

Experiences are generated, expanded, reflected on and combined with supervision and teaching

to refine understanding and application of the psychodrama method.

The curriculum includes:

  • Spontaneity theory
  • Psychodrama production techniques
  • Working in the here and now
  • Practice in auxiliary work, being a protagonist and directing dramas
  • Family and social systems 
  • Sociometry
  • Role theory, including warm up, the relational concept of role, role description and role analysis, the concepts of social and cultural atom
  • Role training
  • Sociodrama
  • Group participation and leadership
  • Identification of group themes and concerns
  • Application of psychodrama and group work in a range of settings and with a range of clients

The training run by Psychodrama Australia Melbourne Campus is accredited through the Australian

and Aotearoa New Zealand Psychodrama Association Inc. (AANZPA).
