Our Mission Statement
The Mid-South Center for Psychodrama and Sociometry is committed to providing quality care to those individuals and groups experiencing difficulties in relationships with others and themselves. Assisting participants in reaching goals that they develop is an integral dynamic of our mission. Providing this care at reasonable financial expense has been and will be a continued goal.
What is Psychodrama & Sociometry?
Psychodrama and Sociometry are the theories at the core of this facilities orientation. Developed by J.L. Moreno, M.D. (1889 - 1974), psychodrama employs guided dramatic action to examine problems or issues raised by an individual or a group. Using experiential methods, sociometry, role theory, and group dynamics, psychodrama facilitates insight, personal growth, and integration at cognitive, affective, and behavioral levels.
Sociometry is the study of relationships in groups. More specifically, it is the study of attractions, neutralities, and rejections between people. Psychodrama without Sociometry is not Psychodrama. It is the foundation upon which Psychodrama rests.
