Abstract

My first contact with psychodramatic techniques arose from the urgency of developing new approaches adapted to the psychotherapeutic needs of psychiatric hospitals. Together with Dr. Rojas Bermudez, I introduced psychodrama in the treatment of groups of children and adolescents during our work in the XVIIIth ward of the Children's Hospital and the psychoprophylactic service of the 6th ward of the clinical hospital of both children and adolescents.

After working seven years in both services, we came to the conclusion that group psychotherapy combined with dramatic techniques within a psychoanalytic orientation was the most effective way to meet the social needs of both services.
