Developing presence and the capacity to work with the emerging life in ourselves and others is the focus of this weekend, led by Hilde Knottenbelt.

Here’s a chance to notice, reflect on and savour some of your experiences of life this year…. To consider what has absorbed you, and what has been satisfying, inspiring, challenging, surprising.
Saturday Oct 3 - Sunday October 4
Developing presence and the capacity to work with the emerging life in ourselves and others is the focus of this weekend. It is an essential aspect of the practice of the psychodrama method and of the training process at Psychodrama Australia.
We live our lives in a busy, worldly, multicultural city on a blue planet at the edge of the galaxy. And while many of us are not religious, “sacred” experiences in our everyday lives can often delight and sustain us.
In this experiential workshop you will be invited to reflect on moments in your life which you might call sacred. There will be a chance to participate as some of these experiences are explored in action. You are likely to come away with an enriched view of yourself and others and our inner worlds.
11-13 September (3 days)
Many groups face the challenge of creating a culture in the world that will enhance our development, and be a community of learning, where there is mutual respect and interest. For creativity to flourish in a group, attention needs to be paid to the emerging interpersonal dynamics. If these are anticipated, valued and understood, the likelihood increases of individual and group purposes being achieved.
This workshop is for facilitators who want to build or expand their repertoire of action methods and integrate fresh perspectives into their practice. It is relevant to those facilitating learning, team building, reviews, consultations, strategic planning and public dialogue.
In this evening session you are invited to explore your experiences of a place called home, by participating in or watching a number of brief enactments. Likely to be engrossing, poignant and rich, this session is open to anyone interested in experiencing and observing psychodrama, sociodrama and action methods.
This workshop is an opportunity to extend and refine your practice as an individual counsellor and psychotherapist. You can expect to learn how and where new principles can be applied in one-to-one counselling and therapy.
You can expect modelling and teaching of a number of approaches, small group activities where you can practise in groups, and some supervision in the whole group. The overall approach will be playful and active.
The workshop is for experienced practitioners seeking to focus and refine their work and for beginners or newcomers to counselling and psychodrama as well. Your learning will be applicable to a wide range of clients.
This session is open to anyone interested in experiencing and observing psychodrama and action methods.
