SUMMARY:Befriending Your Anxious Parts in Action - IFS Conference
DESCRIPTION:Valerie will present a workshop entitled Befriending Your Anxious Parts in Action at the 2025 IFS Conference in St. Charles\, IL. \nWe are living in polarized times and many of us feel blended with our anxious parts more than ever.  In this highly experiential workshop\, IFS practitioners will be introduced to the fundamentals of psychodrama\, and how to integrate it with the IFS model. Participants will learn the Play Your Parts℠ method\, which uses psychodramatic techniques to externalize parts. \nThe workshop will focus on befriending our anxious parts by identifying and working with polarizations that may block the unblending process. A full demonstration of a Self-led psychodrama will be offered\, in which a participant can externalize and unblend from anxious parts and those polarized with them.

SUMMARY:Co-Creation & Connection in a Time of Disconnection - ASGPP Psychodrama Conference - Virtual
DESCRIPTION:In honor of the 100th anniversary of the creation of psychodrama\, Valerie will present a virtual workshop (on April 11th at 10am to 1pm) called Co-Creation and Connection in a Time of Disconnection. Decades ago\, in his book Who Shall Survive\, J.L. Moreno wrote about the dangers of society becoming filled with people not acting in their spontaneity and creativity. Today\, many of us struggle to maintain authentic connections with others in the face of modern technology\, the pandemic\, and political discord. We often stare numbly at screens or vent our frustrations on social media instead of conversing with the people right in front of us. This workshop will help us explore what blocks us from interconnecting with others in our spontaneity and creativity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUse the following link to sign up for this conference: https://asgpp.org/events/asgpp-annual-conference/

DESCRIPTION:Has your perspective of gratitude shifted during the COVID-19 pandemic? As we continue to navigate the pandemic\, it may be particularly challenging to find things to be thankful for or to express gratitude. As Thanksgiving and the rest of the holiday season approach\, the time comes again to reflect on what we are grateful for. Even though we are temporarily remote\, this workshop will be fully experiential. We will explore and rediscover the meaning of gratitude during this trying year in creative ways. Please join us for our November open psychodrama workshop\, From Resentment to Gratitude.

SUMMARY:Living My Authentic Life
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to live authentically? The root of the word authentic means original\, and it is the same root as the word author.  How do we write the unique stories of our own lives?  Being authentic means coming from a genuine place within and without\, when our actions and words are consistent with our beliefs and values. Living an authentic life can foster greater resilience\, self-love\, and can lead to a more meaningful life. Please join us for our March open psychodrama workshop\, Living My Authentic Life.

SUMMARY:Is It Love or Is It Addiction?
DESCRIPTION:How can you tell whether you are authentically in love with another person or falling in love with love? Love can be exciting\, but sometimes we can use love like a drug and cause ourselves and others harm. Romantic obsession\, use of fantasy\, and cyberstalking are all signs of this painful pattern. Sometimes\, we even need to go through a phase of withdrawal from another person similar to withdrawal from drugs to heal the addictive patterns. To learn more\, please join us for our February open psychodrama workshop\, Is It Love or Is It Addiction?
