Do you struggle with anxiety, poor self-esteem, relationship difficulties, or other emotional issues? Do you sometimes find it difficult to articulate what the problem is or feel that words are just not enough to express it? It might be that Dramatherapy is right for you.

Dramatherapy is a form of psychological therapy/psychotherapy in which all of the performing arts are utilised within the therapeutic relationship (BADth). It is particularly helpful when you struggle to articulate what the problem is or when words are just not enough to express it.

Clients do not need to have previous experience or skills in acting, theatre or drama, it is not about performing well or being good at acting, rather it is about making use of dramatic tools to explore, address and make sense of troubling issues. I personally offer different techniques to clients, depending on their personal needs and what they feel more drawn to: stories, masks, creative writing, drawing, play, puppetries and improvisation are just some examples. Talking has its space too.

I am Marta Paglioni, a Dramatherapist clinical practitioner registered with HCPC and full member of BADth (British Association of Dramatherapists). I have clinical experience with different client groups including children, adults and elderly. I worked in the field of mental health on both individual and group basis, working in the NHS, schools and care homes.

I am experienced in working with people diagnosed with Schizophrenia, Personality Disorders, Eating Disorders, ASD and others.

Since I started working as a Postgraduate Researcher in the field of Compassionate Communication with hospital patients for the faculty of Health and Social Sciences of Bournemouth University, I also started my therapy private practice, The Cosy Room Therapy-Dramatherapy.

I see clients individually on a weekly basis. After a first assessment, we understand if we can work together and eventually set some initial therapy aims

I can speak both English and Italian.

Fees: I offer sliding scale of payment, please, contact me and we can discuss the most appropriate fee for your unique circumstances
