Join us for an immersive five-day workshop led by Jeff Chapdelaine, JD, MSW, in Sturbridge, Massachussetts, only one hour from Boston. This workshop will explore the intersection of psychodrama and storytelling and is designed for therapists, professionals, and lawyers who wish to enhance their personal, therapeutic, and trial work through action-based therapy methods.
Workshop Focus
Psychodrama is an action based therapy method in which clients use spontaneous dramatization, role playing, and dramatic self-presentation to investigate and gain insight into their lives that is applicable to personal, therapeutic and trial work. This workshop will focus on personal work. Therapists, professionals and lawyers are welcome to attend.
