A creative approach to mental well-being
Dramatherapy is a powerful form of psychotherapy that uses creative and dramatic techniques to help individuals process emotions, explore their identity, and improve overall well-being. Joni Wilkinson, who is currently setting up her private practice at The Ishta Centre, brings over 20 years of experience in theatre and therapeutic work to support those interested in using creativity as a tool for healing.
This two-hour experiential session is designed for anyone curious about dramatherapy, whether they are looking for personal development, a fresh approach to mental health support, or simply a space to explore self-expression in a welcoming environment.
What to expect
Participants can look forward to an engaging and interactive session where Joni will introduce a range of dramatherapy techniques. The workshop will focus on:
- Exploring personal narratives through creative exercises
- Using drama techniques to aid emotional expression and processing
- Building self-awareness in a supportive and non-judgemental space
