Workshop 79a
Working with a
Group of Couples: Issues and Challenges
Chair:
Rene Marineau,
Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, University of Quebec, Quebec,
Canada
This didactic workshop will use a movie made
by J. L. Moreno around 1948 and based on an actual case treated
through psychodrama. In the course of the work, sociodrama,
psychodrama and playback theatre techniques will be used to
demonstrate the complexities of the work when one deals with
couples. Participants will take the roles of husband, wife and
lover in addition to being the therapist and psychodramatist. Using
the movie as a warm-up and a back drop, the eternal issue of the
triangle in therapy will be address from different perspectives
including values, theory, approach and techniques.
