Who Shall Survive?

 

Now, more than ever, spontaneity and creativity are needed to meet the demands of managed health care and the rapidly changing economy, culture and environment. Action methods offer unique, effective and powerful assessment, intervention and evaluation strategies and tools to meet these challenges. Psychodramatic theory emphasizes creativity and spontaneity rather than illness and psychopathology.

Psychodrama training is designed to augment and increase clinical skills and provide a theoretical understanding of the change process. Trainees are provided an opportunity to enhance their spontaneity, spirituality and enthusiasm in their professional service to others.

Ongoing psychodrama training provides a sanctuary where professionals can gather and connect to receive support, nourishment and comfort. The ongoing group provides a community to inspire and sustain personal creativity in working with difficult clients and chaotic health care delivery systems. It also provides skills practice for helping clients increase liveliness and playfulness in meeting the challenges of life.
