Bipersonal Psychodrama
- its technique, its client and its therapist »

Summary : Bipersonal psychodrama is a therapeutic approach that originated from psychodrama. It does not use auxiliary egos and works with only one client at a time, creating a bipersonal relationship - one client and one therapist. The book "Bipersonal Psychodrama: its techniques, therapists, and clients is directed to psychotherapists and psychodramatists. In a very easy language it points out some theoretical questions related to psychodrama, for instance the idea that the "psychodrama a deux ", as Moreno called this modality of psychotherapy, isn't a "minor" therapeutic approach nor necessarily just a preparation for group therapy, as many authors presume. For the author the bipersonal psychodrama constitutes a very rich tool but demands some creative innovations to the classical group psychodrama techniques. She proposes the use of cushions or other objects from around the room to set complementary roles and then the use of all the classical technique. She defines each technique, aims at clarifying the directions, and gives examples of their correct usage following the steps of the Morenian psychodrama since the warming up, the dramatization until the sharing. Within the many techniques we want to point out: the classical techniques: double, mirroring, role reversal, soliloquy, aximization and concretization; Open Scene Dramatization ; Internal Psychodrama; Working with Dreams; Working with Images and Sculptures ;6- Drama Games. This is not a recipe book of sorts, but the author is not ashamed to say that it was designed to offer "tips" to young therapists and to rescue the importance of the bipersonal set.
