Here’s what people are saying about the November offering of this workshop in Phoenix…

“I really can’t think of anything I would change about the workshop. You kept to the contract and presented exactly what you intended. You accommodated the special interest of particular group members. You both worked so well together in presentation of the information. Lots of good hands-on pratice and audience participation. It helped me a lot to refresh. I was very pleased. Thank you again for allowing us to host you all. Terrific.”

Floyd Godfrey, LPC, Executive Director, Family Strategies & Coaching

“I want to share how much I enjoyed and learned from this training! The trainers were clearly knowledgeable about psychodrama and psychodramatic theory and presented it in a very clear and applicable way. They complimented each other harmoniously and demonstrated how psychodrama can be utilized in individual therapy with issues such as trauma, addiction, developmental issues, and general life stress. They provided a safe space for participants to both disclose personal issues and practice utilizing psychodramatic techniques. I would highly recommend these trainers to people who are interested in learning about psychodrama and how to apply it in your clinical practice. Plus, there was a lot of laughter and fun to make us all feel comfortable!”

Pat Ashbrook, PhD, Flagstaff, AZ

“Just a note to say that I also had a wonderful time at the workshop. Marlo and Adena did a great job of hosting….and I learned a lot of techniques that I can utilize both in my practice..and in my improv classes as I invite the performers to go deeper with their process. It’s wonderful work..and I’m excited to learn more. Thanks again for making it happen and I will be signing up for the January class.”

Shaeri Richards, Certified Hypnotherapist, Sedona, AZ

Today in session I used an exercise you demonstrated with wonderful results. I took what I learned yesterday and used it. The client refered to me as “magical!” I am glad to know it’s not me doing the work, I just have the pleasure of guiding him in it. I think I kind of improvised what was taught but it worked well and I could totally see using it again. It was awesome! Thanks again! You will see me again!

Matt Wheeler – Intern Ottawa University

“I found the program to be enlightening and fun! The techniques taught in this course have already been useful with many of my clients.”

Building Connections: Using Sociometry to Expand Support Systems @ Arizona Inn - Tucson Room
Feb 13 @ 10:00 pm – Feb 14 @ 1:00 am



PRE-REGISTER by FEB 6

Healthy relationships and support are key to recovery from addictions and trauma. JL Moreno (founder of Psychodrama) created a science called “Sociometry- the quantitative study of interpersonal relationships especially that of preferences. This presentation will provide practical application of one sociometric tool, the social atom, for the clinical assessment of client support systems. Participants will practice creating their own social atom as well as facilitating the psychodramatic technique of role reversal. Role reversal creates and deepens empathy, enhances relationships and assists in healthy decision-making and boundary setting – all necessary components of developing a working recovery support system. Sociometry will also be used to facilitate a novel networking opportunity prior to the presentation.

Objectives:
Define the terms “Sociometry”, “role reversal” and “social atom.”
Utilize the social atom for clinical assessment of client support systems.
Apply the psychodramatic technique of role reversal in clinical practice.
