Dramatherapy is a unique approach to psychotherapy that offers active, creative, and playful methods to facilitate exploration, insight, growth and healing. Feeling that arise during therapy can be daunting, and dramatherapy offers alternative modes of expression when it is difficult to express feelings or experiences with words.

Some creative tools that may be used in a dramatherapy session include:

Fairy tales and storytelling
Visual art
Music
Puppets
Small objects, such as miniature animals or illustrated cards
Movement
Masks
Play
And many more!

Dramatherapy is accessible to everyone across all ages. It requires no artistic or acting ability. There is no expectation to ‘perform’ or be put on the spot.The aim is to work with the therapeutic aspects of drama at your own pace and with your own potential. Using drama or art is not essential, though it can aid the therapeutic process and make the most of the experience of psychotherapy.

If you think dramatherapy could be a good fit for you or your child, please get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you!
