"Fascinating, inspiring, unique" - Guest [autumn 2016]
"The most dynamic weekend of creative therapy work I have done in a long while" - Guest [autumn 2016]
These workshop weekends provide an opportunity to experience psychodrama and engage with relevant theories within a safe and supportive environment. Each weekend has a theme, which acts as a general focus for the psychodrama sessions and the accompanying reading. Themed weekends include tutor and trainee led psychodramas.
Who are Themed Weekends for?
No prior experience of psychodrama is required. We also welcome diploma or certificate trainees from other psychodrama training schools and professionals who have a particular interest in psychodrama or the topic for the weekend. These workshops are intended to provide an experience of psychodrama and although they are therapeutic they are not intended as a means of providing psychotherapy.
Times:
Each weekend runs Saturday 9.30 to 18.00 hours; Sunday 9.30 to 16.00 hours. A weekend counts as 16 psychodrama/ CPD hours. Certificates of attendance are provided to give evidence of continuing professional development where needed.
Venue: Family Futures, 440a Hornsey Road, Finsbury Park, N19 4EB
Fees and accommodation:
Weekend fees are £320. Accommodation can be found locally at a reasonable rate if booked in advance.
Event Payment: Payments are accepted via direct online bank transfer (BACs). Please email Anna Chesner at anna@londoncentreforpsychodrama.org to request the details.
