UPCOMING EVENTS

Psychodrama Association for Europe E.V. , Presenter- Bucharest, Romania
The Interplay of the Community and the Self
Participants will explore the dynamic interplay between individual identity, group dynamics, and societal reflection through the lens of the Therapeutic Spiral Model (TSM). Using a strength-based psychodrama approach, we will uncover and amplify personal and collective strengths to promote healing and transformation.
Through guided action methods, participants will:
Identify their strengths and how these contribute to their roles within society.
Engage in psychodramatic enactments to explore how strengths can address societal challenges and foster healing.
Reflect on how individual and group strengths can create ripple effects for positive change in society.
This workshop offers a safe and creative space to connect with your inner resources, engage with others, and envision a healed and empowered reflection of society. Suitable for those curious about psychodrama, trauma-informed practices, and strength-based approaches to personal and collective growth.

Therapeutic Spiral Model - Making Friends with Defenses - Zoom-Online
You will learn and experience:
Connect with the group by exploring both our strengths and vulnerabilities, and awakening the Observing Ego or the compassionate witness that sees us without shame or blame.
Use psychodrama to explore defenses with care, reconnecting with the Observing Ego, Compassionate Witness, the Manager of Defense (MD), and a chosen defense, while also integrating prescriptive and transformative roles.
Without revisiting deep trauma, learn to rewrite the role of the MD, strengthen the Manager of Healthy Functioning, and close the session by carrying forward the gifts and insights discovered.

The Game Plan for Better Living: Games Men Play 1-Day Personal Growth Retreat for Professionals
Men play games, period! The game is related to one’s mental model and how it is enacted in one’s life. This innovative and experiential application in coaching and doing men’s work, asks a very simple question: What game are you playing…REALLY? Whenever there’s a loss of power, freedom and full self-expression in any area of one’s life consider that the real game being played is causing those results.
We will build the group’s strengths and resources and explore some of those games offered up by the group. Power, freedom, and peacefulness are close at hand. You are the heroes. We are the guides. Let the journey begin.
