In both cases of young adults and elderly, Dramatherapy can be beneficial. Through the creative work, it enables the expression and exploration of certain issues that may be affecting their lives.

 

The value of using Dramatherapy, is that it is a client based and non-confrontational therapy. There are many techniques that can be used during sessions and these will vary according to the client’s needs and aims of the session.   

 

Some times, the work we can do during sessions can include the use of

• body,

• music and/or

• movement.

To encourage the use of the body instead of words can be extremely rewarding for some clients. Other times, we can include

• creative work. Inventing a new way of communicating through:

• role-play,

• spontaneity,

• stories, making artworks or

• exploring images.

Many times, clients can bring objects that are meaningful for them and we can work with those objects and the feelings around them.

 

There are as many options as clients needs. Likewise any other therapy, I always take into account the appropriateness of the material, confidentiality and the safety of clients.

 

I cover all aspects of mental health issues, relationships and social well-being.
