January Directing Intensive
January 11-15, 2007


6:30 PM Thursday to 5 PM Monday

Workshop #107
~For Advanced Students (with at least 450 hours of training) and Certified Practitioners, PATS and TEPS~ 

Trainer: Rebecca Walters 
Location: Ulster County, NY
overnight accommodations are available

Limited to Nine Participants. Everyone directs a full two-hour psychodrama session; everyone gets to be a protagonist. 

The role of the director includes the producer, the social investigator, the group facilitator, the analyst/guide, the conflict manger, the sociometrist and more. This intensive will give advanced student directors the chance to explore these many functions. Each participant get to direct a full two-hour psychodrama group including warm up, action and sharing. Each will have the opportunity to be the protagonist in his or her own drama. There will be close to an hour devoted to processing each session with an emphasis on both theory and practice.

This training offers the chance to take a look at what you are doing that works well (and why it works!). We will also take a look at where you get stuck in the process of directing (and why you get stuck in that particular spot). As a group, we look at psychodrama theory and how it can inform our choices of action to further facilitate the drama. It gives you the chance to hone your craft as well as a safe place to be protagonist in your own drama.

For Advanced Students: Many advanced students bemoan the limited directing opportunities in their own training groups. Their directing experience is mainly on their jobs with group members of various functioning levels as well as varied experience with psychodrama This intensive guarantees you a chance to direct a group of your peers.It is expected that you will have previously directed at least five psychodramas or have permission of trainer. The psychodrama community is rich with diversity of background and theoretical orientation. Because your fellow group members will have trained with a variety of trainers, discussions will be enriched by a variety perspectives and training backgrounds. . It also offers a great practice session for your on-site for those of you who are getting close to certification.

For Certified Practitioners, PATS and TEPS; Many practitioners, having "graduated" from their training group, no longer have the opportunity to enjoy being part of a group, nor get the chance to be a protagonist in their own psychodrama. This intensive will give you the opportunity to do both, as well as to get role relief from being the one in charge, the director, the group leader. Come enjoy being a group member, and hone your craft all at the same time! 

Rebecca is committed to creating a warm, relaxed and humor filled environment that encourages spontaneity and reduces the anxiety that often accompanies directing in front of one's peers.
