What is Sociometry? 

Sociometry is a quantitative method for measuring social relationships. Developed by Jacob L. Moreno, it involves analyzing the patterns and structures of social interactions within a group. Sociometry aims to uncover the underlying social connections, such as friendships, alliances, and conflicts, by mapping out individuals' preferences and choices regarding their relationships with others. This approach is often used in psychology, sociology, and organizational studies to improve group dynamics, enhance communication, and resolve conflicts. 

This course unlocks the power of Sociometry by demonstrating essential developmental phases—Double Phase, Mirror Phase, and Role Phase—alongside key interactive techniques such as dyads, spectrograms, locograms, action sociograms, and step-in-circle. Course demonstrates how to effectively integrate these methods into the practice to enhance group cohesion, deepen interpersonal connections, and promote self-awareness and empathy, enabling more impactful interventions and meaningful group growth.

Join an exciting transformative journey with 9 professionals—therapists, counselors, and coaches—from the US, Netherlands, Spain, Nepal, Latvia, Hong Kong, and Malaysia. Guided by instructor Jacomien Ilbrink-de Visser, CP, PAT (TEP in training).

Presenter:

Jacomien Ilbrink-de Visser from the Netherlands, CP, PAT (TEP in training). Jacomien received her training in psychodrama in New York City, where she mastered the application of explicit sociometry, also known as hand-on-shoulders sociometry. Over the past decade, she has specialized in teaching sociometry to clinicians, coaches, and educators in Europe, developing a structured approach to its safe application using Moreno’s developmental theory as a guideline.
