Her approach:
Regina is working towards certification in psychodrama - a method of group therapy in which group members explore their issues in action by bringing them into the "here and now" rather than just talking about them. Psychodrama uses experiential methods to explore patterns of interpersonal choices people make in order to help them understand the roles they play in their various relationships. This insight helps participants make choices about which roles they'd like to keep as they are, which roles they'd like to modify, and which roles they'd like to leave behind. It also helps them find balance and wholeness in their lives.
Psychodrama is a wholistic approach to counseling that relies on the mind/body connection. It helps people connect emotions and feelings that are seated in the limbic brain, to the rational and logical thoughts that are seated in the cerebral cortex. In other words, psychodrama helps participants explore, release and make sense of their emotions and provides the opportunity to practice doing things differently. As such, psychodrama facilitates integration on cognitive, affective and behavioral levels.
