Psychodynamic Creative Therapy Group
This interpersonal psychodynamic therapy group helps participants find a state of relaxation and clarity, beginning with brief meditative yogic breathing exercises and leading to a playful use of imagination. Subjects are encouraged, if they so choose, to bring in their own short creative pieces, such as poetry or other writing or a song to play and sing or a visual work to reveal to the group (it could be someone else’s published work) as they verbalize what it means to them. Self-states and conflicts are embodied and analyzed.
Number of participants: 5-10
Thursdays, 6:30-7:30 pm
Ongoing group, please email or call with inquiries.
The Solace and Dialogue of Poetry/Music for those in Grief
The group helps those in mourning connect their reflections and experiences to a poem or song. Subjects develop their own dialogue with the work, finding meaning in it that helps them mourn, particularly as it serves as spring boards for the group to help process grief, coming to terms with it through the use of imagination and catharsis. What fantasies, unanswered questions or beliefs do subjects have about their relationships with their lost ones?
Number of participants: 5-10
