Hit Refresh on Your Supervision Sessions with Psychodrama
This workshop will focus on learning some basic psychodramatic tools to implement with supervisees to develop their clinical skills. We will engage in a didactic portion explaining the basics of psychodrama and providing resource articles on the Charter of Pyschodrama and The Social Atom. We will then facilitate an experiential exercise in which participants explore their own career roles and identify areas that they would like to move into. Participants will then be able to psychodramatically role reverse with their roles to identify intrapsychic conflict or blocks keeping them from fully moving into the roles they would like.
