This workshop will briefly address the social challenges of Adult Asperger’s. We will demonstrate role-training that provides “Aspies” with knowledge of appropriate responses in common situations. Action methods help this socially stressed population who lack integration of social cues. They then have the ability to learn new responses in situations they have not understood. There will be a psychodrama demonstration, processing, and handouts.
This is a 2013 Award Winner’s Workshop
This 29-hour specialty workshop provides the opportunity for 8 beginning psychodrama directors to do as much or as little of the following as they feel comfortable: direct a full psychodrama session, including warm-up, action, and sharing, and get feedback from the trainers as well as from their peer participants. If you do not care to direct, a trainer can direct for you, or you can tag-team direct with the support of the trainer. Additionally, each participant will get to serve as protagonist in one of these peer-directed dramas.
You must be a licensed mental health professional and have attended at least one previous API workshop OR have a minimum of 20 hours of psychodrama training to register for this workshop.. Each attendee is to attend each session unless arranged in advance to miss.
