Dramatic Psychological Storytelling: Using the Expressive Arts and Psychotheatrics

Storytelling is a time-honoured and effective form of communication for the construction of shared understanding. Combined with the expressive arts, storytelling becomes even more powerful - a connection for deep inter-subjective meaning. In Dramatic Psychological Storytelling the authors present a seven-step model for insight and change, anchored by the expressive arts and the action method, Psychotheatrics. By doing so, they transform the storytelling experience into a phenomenological framework for depicting challenges, strategies and outcomes, resulting in the dynamic illustration of inter-subjective meaning.
