Psychodrama

Drama Therapy involves the practice of embodying different roles in real-time that are therapeutic. For example, if a person dislikes their job and wants to leave, but is fearful to take the next steps, this is an example of two parts of a person that are at odds. My approach depends on the comfort level of my client, but I often use this method by helping people identify these conflicting parts of themselves, and express themselves from those different points of view.

Working under a supervisor, I provide safe and professional therapy. In my practice, I follow both the Code of Ethics of the institute of Psychodrama and Statement of Ethical Principles for the European Association of Psychotherapy. I always strive to further my abilities as a therapist and psychiatrist, making it my professional duty to attend international workshops regularly.

I have completed psychodrama training hours both in the Indian and U.S contexts.

Psychodrama is an action method, often used as psychotherapy, in which clients use spontaneous dramatization, role-playing, and dramatic self-presentation to investigate and gain insight into their lives. I use psychodrama with souldrama (http://www.souldrama.com/aboutsouldrama.html) to break patterns that are stopping you from fulfilling your lives.

I have advanced training in psychodrama, an action based form of group and individual therapy that helps you connect with your emotions, improve your friendships and relationships, explore different parts of yourself, and allows you try out new skills safely.

My training in psychodrama has allowed me to use this therapy as a way of interacting with the many roles we have in our lives, along with a unique way of interacting with our emotions, selves and issues.

I had 700+ psychodrama training hours. I utilize experiential & expressive art techniques to facilitate people's creativity, spontaneity & flexibility in all levels (cognition, emotion, & behavior). I create an experiential process to impact people inside & outside of therapy, which empowers them to gain new experience internally and externally. Therefore, they develop a stronger self & I believe through the experiential process, the changes made in therapy fundamentally last longer.

It is my belief that, through years of helping clients, at times talking only may not help. I will do role plays, dramatizations of your life with key people, and act out what may have gone on in your life. This will help you get a much better perspective as to what keeps you stuck.

I incorporate elements of Psychodrama in my individual work and in the groups I facilitate. I am actively engaged in professional development and training in this area.
