TIME IN THERAPY: PSYCHODRAMATIC POSSIBILITIES

Abstract

This study aimed to understand how people relate to time and present possibilities of psychodramatic action in different session formats. Therefore, qualitative research was carried out in case study format, with analysis of records of a group meeting and a bipersonal session of three women, each in their psychotherapeutic process. The group meeting with dramatic games worked specifically the relationship with time and presented the difficulties and facilities in dealing with time that passes quickly or slowly, with the unforeseen and/ or seize the moment. The individual sessions marked time as an enemy, until the understanding that the exhaustive routine or the preservation of productivity prevented spontaneity.
