Dance movement therapy
= is an expressive form of psychotherapy, founded on the belief that the body and mind are an interrelated continuum. Through the vehicle of movement and dance, the client can creatively explore emotional, cognitive, physical and social integration.
= Dance therapists operate from the principle that movement reflects an individual's process of thinking and feeling. By acknowledging and supporting the client's movements, the therapist encourages the development of new emotional experiences through adaptive movement patterns, supporting the solution of psychological issues.
= DMT can be practised individually with the therapist, or within groups. The client does not have to be a trained dancer to benefit from DMT, as movement is an essential part of who we are.
Drama therapy
= Drama therapy is the intentional use of theatrical techniques, such as role-play, theatre games, mime, puppetry, voice work, myth, ritual, storytelling and other improvisational techniques to facilitate creativity, imagination, learning, insight and personal growth. Its extremely varied approach provides an expressive therapy modality that can be used in a wide variety of settings, including hospitals, schools, mental health centres, prisons and businesses. = Drama therapy supports opportunities for individuals or groups to explore personal and/or social problems in a creative environment, and to safely reflect upon existing beliefs, attitudes, and feelings, exploring alternative ways of acting in the world. The drama therapist encourages self-awareness, reflection upon, and expression of, feelings in relationship to the self and to others.
