Study Notes
Case Study: Angelica
- Angelica, a 16-year-old, struggles to fit in at her new school and neighborhood after her parents' divorce.
- She emerges as the protagonist in a psychodrama session, with other group members serving as auxiliaries.
- Group members include teenagers dealing with various issues, such as social anxiety, recent loss of a loved one, and fear of graduation.
Case Conceptualization
- A case conceptualization based on Beck's rubric (2011) is used as an ongoing therapeutic tool.
- Group members complete the case conceptualization form, which helps them reflect on their rules, conditional assumptions, beliefs, and coping mechanisms.
Cognitive Triad
- The cognitive triad is a visual representation of negative thoughts, reflecting themes of loss, emptiness, and failure, creating a depressive/failure mindset.
- This characterization is often distorted and can be challenged through case formulation.
Psychodrama Technique
- The technique involves Angelica walking around the room with her double, exploring her thoughts and feelings about her parents' divorce and recent move.
- She recognizes her need for acceptance from others and her lack of self-confidence.
- The facilitator uses role reversal and interview techniques to help Angelica gain insight into her strengths and good qualities.
Integrating Psychodrama and CBT
- The integration of psychodrama and CBT helps clients like Angelica become aware of their habitual dysfunctional thought patterns and belief systems.
