Social Work, Sociometry, and Psychodrama
Experiential Approaches for Group Therapists, Community Leaders, and Social Workers
I am thrilled to share with you about my new book which is the first to comprehensively integrate Moreno’s methods into the social work field. The eBook is freely accessible and indexed in academic databases – it is
the first book in a new international psychodrama book series by Springer Nature. I am excited to share that in its first week, the book received over 21,000 downloads and reached the #1 New Release spot on Amazon
in the category of Medical Psychology Research.
The book emerged from my own process of integrating my professional roles of social worker and psychodramatist.
These theoretical systems and the practice of both have much in common. Social workers are often articulating the same idea as Moreno but different language; person-in-environment, mutual aid, social justice, dignity/worth, etc. In many ways, Moreno operated as a social worker, working with marginalized/oppressed populations, emphasizing
relationships and social forces, and advocating for an integrated approach to change at the individual, group, and societal levels.
The book was written to appeal to academics, therapists, activists, and community leaders with sections devoted to group work, individual work, community work, as well as theory and history. Many have commented that the book is ideal for psychodrama trainees preparing for the certification exam; others have expressed intent to use the book as the required text in their university psychodrama syllabi. Regardless of where you are in your psychodrama journey, I believe and hope that the book has something meaningful for you!
