Monash University - Dramatherapy Skills Training Workshop: Stories of Life

On the 12th of December 2018, I had the pleasure of facilitating a Skills Training workshop for the Masters of Counselling students at Monash University, Malaysia.
There were 30 participants.

I am very impressed with the students as they had contacted me and organized the workshop themselves. I love that they had taken up the responsibility to be in charge of what they would like to learn to enhance their skills as future counselors. This gives me hope for the current university students. I hope their example is replicated by students in other programs and universities to take charge of what they want to learn to enhance their skills in their chosen fields of education.

I would like to thank Sara, who had taken on the main responsibility to organize this workshop.

It is wonderful to see the enthusiasm and creativity of the participants. I always feel honoured to facilitate and to  bear witness to the creative and authentic expressions of the participants of these workshops.

These are some of the feedback from the participants:
