Validation of training courses

Components of training courses

In identifying basic components of all seven courses in Dramatherapy, there is a large degree of compatibility, though each course provides some elements which are accepted as over and above a basic content. This results in each course having a unique identity

The basic components common to all courses are:

 

Supervision and ongoing development

As from 1992 all newly qualifying Dramatherapists are required by the Association to participate in regular supervision in order to be eligible for Full Membership, and supervision throughout one's working life has been adopted as a formal recommendation.

In addition to the above-named British establishments, a range of other individuals and organisations offer short courses, workshops and summer schools which provide opportunity for Dramatherapists to further develop specific skills and pursue personal development. Information regarding such events regularly published in the Association's Newsletter and can also be obtained by contacting the recognised training courses.

Drama therapy combines the aims and techniques of drama/theatre with those of psychotherapy to treat individuals in crisis and help those with special needs to expand their quality of life. New York University was the first in the country to develop an academic program leading to a Master of Arts degree in drama therapy. The program attracts theatre professionals and educators, therapists, and those working in the fields of medicine, nursing, and special education. Students come from diverse cultural and academic backgrounds to study and apprentice with the leading professionals in the creative arts therapies. Classes are small and instruction individualized. The drama therapy program has been approved by the National Association for Drama Therapy.
