Note: If you later register for the 10-session (20-hour) certification program on the same topic beginning January 2026, the fee for this workshop will be applied as a credit—so you’ll attend 11 sessions for the price of 10.

2-Hour Experiential Workshop: INTEGRATING BUDDHIST PSYCHOLOGY, PSYCHODRAMA, SOCIOMETRY, AND GROUP PROCESS
© Tele'Drama

Directed by: Jaye Moyer, LCSW, TEP, CTP-2 & Daniela Simmons, PhD, TEP

• The course offers 2 hours of online psychodrama training that count toward certification through the American Board of Examiners (ABE) and the International Society for Experiential Professionals (ISEP). 
• Buddhist Psychology is one of the related fields approved by the American Board of Examiners (ABE) for the certification process as Certified Practitioners (CPs) and Trainers, Educators, and Practitioners (TEPs).

As long as we humans have been around, these currents of gain and loss, pleasure and pain, praise and blame, and fame and shame blow through, around and within us. 

Description
In this focused, two-hour experiential workshop, we will weave some of the core elements of Buddhist Psychology, (embodied mindfulness, impermanence and compassion), with psychodrama, sociometry and group process.Through a mindful arrival, sociometric warm-up and a guided enactment, we will explore the Eight “Worldly Winds.”  By practicing role reversal and doubling we will foster a compassionate “Inner Anchor” that supports us in meeting these winds with more balance and stability. Participants will leave with simple, specific interventions they can apply to clients or groups. The focus of this group is educational/skills-based and not therapeutic.
 

Learning Objectives 

1. Learn how to use and map reactivity patterns using a sociometric warm-up and the Worldly Winds frame to identify role needs and shifts.
2. Apply role reversal and doubling in a live experiential enactment vignette and draft a 5 to10-minute micro-intervention integrating mindful awareness with one action method.
