All change starts from within.
Dramatherapy and Supervision in Fremantle
Dr. Russya Connor
Dramatherapist, Counsellor, Supervisor
Welcome to Dramatherapy & Supervision in Fremantle, Perth, WA
Various factors contribute to our challenges, and there are equally numerous mechanisms for change. As a qualified dramatherapist, counsellor, and supervisor in Fremantle, WA, I encourage playfulness, spontaneity, and imagination to address life’s challenges. I blend dramatherapy, experiential and existential psychotherapy with positive psychology and action-based techniques for emotional exploration and growth.
Through these methods, we can tap into the power of creativity and play to stay courageous, curious, and resilient, even in the face of difficulties. Playfulness won’t magically change your reality, but it keeps the flame of adventure alive, allowing you to navigate life’s ups and downs with a joyful heart. As adults, we often forget the wonder and excitement of childhood, where unpredictability and messiness were embraced. Reawakening these parts of ourselves can help unlock new possibilities, bringing healing and transformation to your life.
With a plurality of perspectives, both yours and mine, we navigate the therapeutic journey together, exploring the vast potential for healing that lies within each of us. Whether you’re seeking to overcome trauma, cope with anxiety, or simply reconnect with your playful side, the therapeutic process will be one of discovery, openness, and collaboration.

Discover the Transformative Power of Dramatherapy!
Dramatherapy has, at its core, the intentional and systemic use of drama, theatre processes, and symbolic action to achieve therapeutic goals such as symptom relief, emotional and physical integration, and personal growth. By incorporating both interactive and non-verbal methods, dramatherapy opens up a unique and profound healing experience. It helps us express what words alone cannot, often through the use of metaphors, role play, or symbolic action. This allows us to explore different facets of our personalities in a safe and supportive environment, fostering self-acceptance and emotional growth.
Dramatherapy is both a creative and transformative process, using action methods to facilitate creativity, imagination, learning, insight, and self-compassion. Through the power of somatic experiencing, movement, storytelling, play, improvisation, and reflection, individuals gain invaluable insights into life’s roles and patterns.
This dynamic approach invites us to reawaken our playful selves—the part of us that thrives on spontaneity, creativity, and imagination. In dramatherapy, the creative realm knows no bounds, allowing contradictions to surface and mysteries to unfold. It provides a secure haven where individuals can explore alternative behaviors, envision meaningful life changes, and rehearse new roles or responses to life’s challenges. Whether it’s through symbolic enactments or playful improvisation, dramatherapy offers a space to safely express difficult emotions, understand relational patterns, and cultivate personal growth.
Through the playful, imaginative lens of dramatherapy, you can access deeper emotional insights, explore untapped potential, and begin to create the changes you seek in life. The process empowers you to embrace vulnerability, connect with your inner self, and ultimately discover the transformative power of play and creativity.
