PSYCHODRAMA
Psychodrama is a worldwide well-known and established action group psychotherapeutic method, developed by Jacob Levy Moreno.
The basic characteristic of psychodrama is the stage enactment of the inner world and life situations of the participants.Members of the group can explore their experience of the present, the past and the vision of the future, situations that occurred (or could had, but did not), spoken and unspoken thoughts and feelings, desires, fantasies, dreams. They can confront/encounter people from the past, resolve and complete relations, discover their own limitations and potentials, meet with their emotions and learn how to express themselves freely.In psychodrama inaccessible sources of psyche and interpersonal relationships become more accessible to consciousness and the possibility of change. Through psychodrama the patterns of behavior become enlightened, the nature of relationship clarifies, real needs are being revealed, which leads to a better understanding of ourselves and others.Psychodrama provides participants with support and a safe environment in which they can train new, more effective roles and behavior that fosters personal growth, integration of cognitive, emotional and behavioral personality level, it increases awareness and consciousness, empathy, social interaction and group cohesion and productivity. It is suitable for establishing better communication skills, stress reduction, work with trauma and other mental health problems.
Psychodrama encourages creative thinking to enable an individual to take the initiative and find a suitable and good-enough response to a new, unfamiliar situation, as well as a new and better response to a situation that is repeating.
Moreno worked in the field of psychology (he studied medicine and theology in Vienna and was a contemporary of Freud, inspired by the ideas of Martin Buber, philosopher of dialogue) as well as in the field of theatre (he founded the theatre of spontaneity – Stegreif theater).
The epitaph on his gravestone reads: “J. L. Moreno, the man who brought laughter to psychiatry.”
In psychodrama any adult person who wants to encounter herself/himself and others through play, is welcome, regardless of age or profession. No special acting skills are required for it.
