Dramatherapy is an evidence-based form of psychotherapy. Dramatherapists train at Masters-level and are accredited with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).

This therapeutic approach uses storytelling, metaphor, movement, and dramatic play to connect with your own story. These methods are understood as valid means of communicating, processing, and achieving catharsis, just as spoken words are in talking-based therapies.

A dramatherapeutic space is held flexibly to meet the needs of the client or group of clients. You are free to express yourself - to move, dance, play, sing, create - all at your own pace, with a therapist as your witness and guide.

Through this process, dramatherapy supports emotional insight, self-expression, and personal growth. It can help individuals to build resilience, develop communication, and find new perspectives on their experiences, promoting wellbeing in a creative and accessible way.

Anyone can take part in dramatherapy - there is no required skillset or experience necessary. The therapeutic space is your space for processing and creating, held with care by the dramatherapist with whom you work.

Here are some of the issues and themes clients we have worked with previously have been affected by, or identified with:

- Developmental trauma / ACEs
- Chronic pain
- Eating disorder
- Neurodivergent identity
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Learning disability
- Isolation

This list is not exhaustive, but shows a small slice of the range of experiences with which dramatherapy can engage. We believe in connecting with you as a person, learning about your goals and ideas, and enabling you to express yourself - not seeing you as a diagnosis or a problem to fix.

Skytiger is a dramatherapy and creative facilitation project held by a warm, playful, and experienced cofacilitation pair.

Based in Glasgow, we work within organisations and independently to deliver dramatherapy sessions both 1:1 and for groups.

We are trained to work in a person-centred manner, leading with compassion and with genuine interest in your unique experiences. As relational practitioners, we understand that the quality of connection between client and therapist is instrumental to your therapy.

Principle to our approach is a deep respect for, and curiosity in, your personal way of being and expressing yourself. We hope to help you feel held, listened to, and empowered to pursue your own transformation, whatever it is you bring to therapy.

We work as partners because we feel that our styles and skillsets provide balance to each other. Our interests and personal creative practices influence our individual therapeutic approaches.
