About the Workshop:

In this workshop, we will use action methods to explore attachment theory, teachings from interpersonal neurobiology, and learn sociometry/psychodramatic tools for exploring relationships. The self develops and exists in relationship to others. As humans, we are social animals and our neurobiological wiring promotes attachment, connection, group membership, and community belonging.  As mental health professionals, relationships are the vehicle from which we work with our clients – and often the crux of the client’s concerns. Jacob L. Moreno, the founder of sociometry and psychodrama, was one of the first to challenge the medical model and suggest that mental illness is a product of relationships, groups, and society. Using Moreno’s sociometric system we will explore attachment styles, social atoms, and sociodynamics while employing psychodrama to promote psychosocial change.

 

Learning Objectives:

1). Identify four different attachment styles and their impact on behavior in groups and therapy.

2). Describe three reasons why relationships are important in recovery.

3). Explain the social atom theory

4). Identify three sociometric tools to explore group relationships

5). Describe the process of psychodramatic sculpting using the social atom

6). Explain the role of group cohesion in effective group therapy practice

7) Compare how different attachment styles may influence a therapists’ choices or behaviors

8) Explain how to use the social atom as an assessment

9) Explain one way to modify the social atom for a specific population

10) Utilize the social atom as a treatment planning tool

11) Describe psychodrama’s role theory

12) Demonstrate at least one sociometry tool for enhancing group cohesion

13) Utilize doubling to enhance safety, catharsis, and integration

14) Explain the value of the role reversal intervention in enhancing empathy

15) Describe the value of psychodrama/sociometry in understanding social/relational problems

16) Define each of the parts of Moreno’s triadic system

17) Explain the utility of psychodramatic role training in helping clients develop new social skills

*Please note that this is workshop will include both didactic and experiential learning components. The experiential learning structures include demonstrations of psychodrama and other experiential processes which often include (optional) personal disclosures from participants. While personal growth is often a byproduct of experiential learning in psychodrama, the primary purpose of this workshop is training. If you are seeking a workshop for personal growth or seeking a professional training event that is entirely didactic (lecture/powerpoint), this is probably not the best workshop for you.
