Groups
psychodrama, sociometry, and group psychotherapy
Psychodrama is a trauma-informed, action-oriented therapy that uses creative play to help adults overcome trauma. Often described as "kindergarten for adults," it enables participants to experiment with new roles and behaviors in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. Group members act as healing agents, using personal strengths to foster a healing community. This therapy is experiential, allowing expression through visual and concrete methods like props or role-playing. Groups meet weekly for two hours, require a three-month commitment, and I charge a flat fee of 260 per month. Individual pre-sessions ensure fit and therapeutic goals.

psychodrama, sociometry, and group psychotherapy
Psychodrama is a somatic group therapy where members support each other in healing through enactments of past, present, future, or imaginary moments in time. The group is a creative and nurturing environment where members can be witnessed and held by compassionate peers as we explore issues such as: belonging, grief, conflict, family of origin, work roles and relationships, self esteem, trauma responses, and stories about ourselves that can be updated or rewritten. In group therapy we are not alone and have access to the resources members bring and share as we all learn the advantages of true mutual aid.

psychodrama, sociometry, and group psychotherapy
Psychodrama is a somatic based therapy where people create a safe and nurturing environment to enact and witness past, present, future, and imaginary moments in people's lives. Group members benefit from the shared resources within the group to help the protagonist (the member creating the enactment) come up with creative solutions to resolve a variety of issues. Groups explore: Belonging, conflict, work issues, family of origin issues, relationships, trauma, grief, vulnerability, and stories about ourselves that need to be updated or rewritten altogether. By sharing resource (abundance), instead of competing (scarcity), we can create a healthy and thriving community.
