Led by Chris Hosking, Psychodramatist, TEP, Distinguished Member of AANZPA and staff member of Psychodrama Australia's Melbourne Campus
In this workshop we will refresh ourselves with the psychodrama method and how this method can assist us as directors, protagonists and auxiliaries to be actively productive in our lives.
Current and Past Events
This supervision group is for professionals conducting clinical work in groups and one to one settings, including psychodrama practitioners, trainees and other professionals interested in this approach.
Belonging is fundamental to us as human beings. We have a strong desire to belong, to be ourselves, to be at ease and accepted in a place or community. We come to discover more of who we are through being with others. Yet belonging and not belonging are not always simple experiences.
Leading a full life, moving from one thing to another, can leave us without enough space to adequately absorb, savour or share experiences which mean something to us. In a similar vein, Bushmen from the Kalahari when asked why they were refusing to continue the journey after several days walking, said ‘We are waiting for our souls to catch up’.
Developing presence and the capacity to work with the emerging life in ourselves and others is the focus of this weekend, led by Hilde Knottenbelt.

A psychodrama training workshop led by Chris Hosking
Friday, Saturday and Sunday 13-15 May 10am-6pm
In this workshop there will be an emphasis on the concepts and application of role theory and the unique approach this theory makes to the human psyche. The workshop will involve the participants as directors, protagonists and auxilaries and in periods of reflection and review.
We all have them: everyday moments which need a more inspired response than we come up with at the time. Instead, we can narrow down, withdraw, condemn, dither or collude. We experience a failure of imagination.
This session uses action methods from psychodrama to engage you in revisiting a range of everyday situations in a spirit of play and experimentation.

This multi-level training group is an AANZPA accredited training program.
It is for new trainees at the core curriculum level and trainees at intermediate and advanced levels of training.
The group is led by Jenny Hutt, Hilde Knottenbelt and Chris Hosking.
In response to migration and refugees, Angela Merkel opened the German border and Donald Trump is putting deportation and building a big wall on his US Presidential ‘to do’ list. Here in Australia, a third of us were born overseas and we are said to live in one of the most successful multicultural nations in the world. Yet successive Australian governments detain asylum seekers off shore, despite clear evidence of the damage this is doing.
This evening session is an invitation for us to consider our experiences, impulses and challenges in coming to grips with our country’s approach to migration, refugees and people seeking asylum. Aspects of the psychodrama method will be used to help us build our connections as we discover more about the things that matter to us.
