Sydney Canberra Campus - Australian Capital Territory
Psychodrama Training Long Weekend Workshop
- Action Techniques for working constructively with intense expression.
Canberra 17-19 March  2022
In this training workshop, the focus will be on applying action techniques as a leader to intense expression and potentially traumatising situations,  by means of experiential sessions applied to daily life including work, play and relationships, with a view to increasing the capacity to rise creatively to life’s challenges. The experiential, systemic, action process known as the psychodrama method is learnt in the process.

Being a participant you can expect to be actively involved, have fun, and work hard as you enact scenes from life and imagination with the guidance of the director. People meet in depth by assisting in one-anothers' dramas and the group life. Action is involving and teaches new life-skills.
There will be some opportunities for supervised practice of directing psychodrama for psychodrama trainees.

The psychodrama method assists participants to increase their spontaneity and creativity through active participation. This participation includes group work, enactment and theoretical mini lectures. The program will assist in developing leadership and will lead to increasing abilities in relating to others.

The training assists in developing confidence in group presentations and in the development of interpersonal and group skills.
This program is designed for professional people who are involved in health, theatre, management, leadership, consultancies, coaching, mentoring , supervision, art, writing, teaching, human potential and creative therapies. The process will assist in the deepening of abilities to step into the shoes of others and this will contribute to the effectiveness of those who are therapists, counsellors, psychotherapists, health workers, managers, trainers and educators, actors, artists, writers and poet.

The learning of new skills may be emotionally challenging and participants are required to have abilities to sustain their life and are participating in areas such as studies, employment and social and creative activities.

A certificate of attendance will be given on request and may be used for points towards required professional development and psychodrama certification. The training hours are recognised by AANZPA and can lead to certification as a psychodramatist, sociodramatist, role trainer or sociometrist.
