IPSO Meeting in Geneva

The most important feature of the International

Psychoanalytical Studies Organisation of which I am a member

was the workshops on psychodrama. We participated to

classical and Balint psychodrama. In the former, we enacted

the crisis of an adolescent who locks herself in her room,

not wanting to see her therapist and showing anger reactions

to her parents until her boyfriend comes to visit to get her

out of her room. In the Balint psychodrama, a therapist and

his patient changed roles on every sentence by repeating it

so that the issues of counter-tranference could be specified.
