What happens in an individual psychodrama session?
Individual psychodrama follows the same structure as a group psychodrama. However, the client plays all the roles in the drama. The director (the therapist) may take a role but generally does not. Chairs, pillows, scarves and other objects may be used to represent roles. In an individual psychodrama session, the client is always the protagonist. Therefore, there is more opportunity to directly explore his/her own material. There is also more room for other modalities to be spontaneously integrated into the session.
