Drama Therapy is the intentional use of drama processes and/or theatre productions to achieve therapeutic goals. Drama therapists use improvisation, theatre games, role play, storytelling, puppetry, masks, psychodrama, sociodrama, performance and many other active, embodied, experiential techniques to access and address clients’ needs and therapeutic goals. Drama Therapy is used for prevention, intervention and treatment in a wide variety of settings. Most Drama Therapists work with groups, but some also work with families, couples, and individuals.
