The Janus Gate
Janus: the God of Gates, Doors and New Beginnings. With the New year comes the opportunity to expand emerging roles and develop new ways of being in the world.
New roles, often gradual, edge our way into change, discarding old ways. We are in the midst of change already begun. Through the surplus reality of psychodrama, we can develop a vision of how our life might be richer as we articulate new responses to our world. Summoning the support of role models and mentors, we can begin the process of integrating new roles.

Awakening the Heart of Loving Kindness, Forgiveness, and Compassion
Entangled in the trance of unworthiness, we grow accustomed to caging ourselves in with self-judgment and anxiety. We will explore the parts of us that hold us back and those that nourish us in all our vulnerability and humanness.
The way out begins with accepting with forgiveness and compassion absolutely everything about us and our lives. In this workshop, we will explore how to regard all parts of ourselves with an open, kind and loving heart.

Sandplay and Psychodrama
Integral to Psychodrama is the concept of the warmup. Sandplay/Sandtray as a warmup to action offers a compelling way to allow unconscious material to come forward in the form of powerful symbols. These symbols often hold keys to our psyche that offer valuable information that can be explored in action through Psychodrama.
Both Sandplay and Psychodrama create a world of Surplus Reality where images can be understood through doubling, role reversal, concretization and mirroring in an action form of Jung’s Active Imagination, a meditation technique wherein the contents of one's unconscious are translated into new images and narratives
