Abstract
ABSTRACT Psychodrama, sociometry, and group psychotherapy is an action-oriented form of therapy through which individuals (protagonists) act out scenes with support from a group facilitator (director) and group members (auxiliary). A traditional psychodrama group has three distinct stages: warm-up, action, and sharing. Psychodrama uses dramatic action to explore the concerns, hopes, and dreams of individuals and groups. The following narrative is a fictional depiction based on a composite of experiences that the authors have had.

Social Work with Groups is a unique quarterly journal of community and clinical practice, and an important reference publication for those in the social work profession who value and seek to understand the small group. The journal addresses the issues of group work in psychiatric, rehabilitative, and multipurpose social work and social service agencies; crisis theory and group work; the use of group programs in clinical and community practice; and basic group competencies for all social work professionals. The contributions reflect a sophisticated knowledge of the use of the group as a learning medium and a highly developed understanding of instructional technology in the teaching of social group work knowledge and skills.
