What is TSM?

This video course introduces Innovative Clinical Psychodrama as an effective and safe method for treating trauma and PTSD. Recent research in the neurobiology of trauma and attachment underscores the efficacy of experiential, body-based approaches in psychotherapy and education. Clinicians working with trauma aim to establish a secure and contained therapeutic environment. Action therapy plays a pivotal role but can sometimes trigger unprocessed trauma material, leading to flashbacks and decompensation. TSM, developed by Board Certified Psychodrama Trainers, Educators, and Practitioners Kate Hudgins, Ph.D., and Francesca Toscani, M.Ed., TEP, serves as a guide for trauma treatment. TSM integrates classical psychodrama, attachment theory, and insights from interpersonal neurobiology and trauma theory, enhancing safety and structure when working with trauma.


This video module presents TSM Psychodrama, which employs role theory to identify the necessary roles for working with trauma survivors in a safe and contained manner. It provides a comparison with classical Morenian psychodrama. The module also introduces the concept of the Autonomous Healing Center (AHC) and offers an experiential exploration to stimulate spontaneity and creativity. Join the transformative individual session of the counselor from the US led by two therapists.
