It provides in one volume: a definition of the core processes at work in dramatherapy; a clear description of how to structure sessions a thorough review of techniques; a wide range of examples from clinical practice; and new unpublished material on the European origins of dramatherapy. At the heart of the book is a definition of the nine core processes which define how and why dramatherapy can offer the opportunity for change.

Dramatherapy’s approach to role, play, mask, ritual, performance and script are all described.
