Module 2 of 7 on Working with Adolescents Using Action Techniques. Students can purchase individual modules or the entire course of 7 modules, with a bundle discount. For educators, psychodramatists, psychologists, therapists, social workers, and parents trying to connect with their adolescent children.

Mario incorporates the Therapeutic Spiral Model (TSM) clinical approach including the clinical map, Trauma Survivors Internal Role Atom (TSIRA). He also describes how the TSM prescriptive roles provide a useful map for developmental, informed work with adolescents. The main emphasis of the module is the practical application of Role Reversal, with demonstrations on the various ways to utilize it. 

Participants will be able to:

-Define group experience vs individual experience.

-Understand group forming, transition, and development.

-Introduce the group of adolescents or an individual Role reversal technique.

-Direct individual and/or group sessions with adolescents on role reversal with interpersonal, personal, and transpersonal strengths.

-Direct Role Reversal with the Observing Ego role, one of the key roles helping to set the safety and container in individual or group work.

-Help adolescent clients to discover if their defenses are serving them positively or negatively via introducing the role of Manager of Defences.

-Work with challenging groups, such as a variety of different ages. Learn techniques on how to effectively combine, for example, 13, 17, and 22 years old members.
