Aspects of the identity matrix in the initial psychodrama interviews

Abstract

The objective of this research was to identify aspects of the identity matrix during the initial interviews of the psychotherapeutic process. The methodology was qualitative, approaching the case study of a former client. The analysis was based on socionomic theory, cluster theory and intersectional perspective. The interviewee was brought up by a family in which she experienced violence, neglect and omission during childhood. This situation crystallized and spread to other social roles. She complained of conflicts with her husband and the presence of additional transfer processes, with psychological suffering and search for unrealistic solutions. We detected aspects of the first and second universes of the identity matrix and verified the power of the initial interviews for Psychodrama.
