Here’s What People Are Saying about Sociometry Blitz
“This was a very well thought-out and comprehensive training. Dr. Archer condensed very difficult material into understandable language and had a balance between didactic and action method. I would highly recommend this training to those who are interested in learning about the underlying factors affecting groups and how to intervene.” — Pat Ashbrook, Ph.D., Flagstaff
“Thanks Dr. Marlo! You provided an english translation of the foreign and complex language of sociometry. The clarity with which you teach is refreshing and has allowed me to integrate and clinically apply the concepts and procedures of sociometry. You are a master at naming and facilitating group process, again, consistently providing us with examples and ideas of how to apply what we were learning into our clinical practice. I highly recommend this workshop and ANY workshop facilitated by you- you make learning difficult material fun and provide the safety and trust in you and the group that makes it all worthwhile.” — Adena Bank Lees, LCSW, LISAC, BCETS, Tucson
“Dr. Archer made sociometry come to life ‘in the moment’ in a way that was understandable and applicable to my personal growth as well as professional effectiveness. Her presence and attunement to the group process allowed those gathered in the workshop to experience the impact of the sociometric process.” — Grayce Gusmano, MMFT, LPC; Scottsdale

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.”
Troy Love, LCSW
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.
