About
Ms Lauren O'Hagan is a qualified Dramatherapist specialising in creative arts therapy, offering support through a humanistic and integrative approach. Her practice is accredited by both the Irish Association of Creative Arts Therapists (IACAT) and the British Association of Dramatherapists (BADth).
Dramatherapy, as practised by Lauren, employs creative arts to facilitate growth and transformation in clients' lives. It operates within a structured ritualistic framework, utilising a variety of creative activities such as stories, myths, music, movement, image making, imaginative play, sensory exercises, and action-based activities. Lauren also incorporates therapeutic techniques like breathwork, meditation, self-care tools, attachment knowledge, and somatic practices as needed.
Recognising that therapy can be intimidating, Lauren emphasises creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore and express themselves at their own pace. Her intuitive and empathetic skills help create trust and facilitate therapeutic progress, particularly for clients who find verbal communication challenging.
Lauren's approach to Dramatherapy allows clients to engage in therapeutic processes through non-verbal means, offering a gentle alternative for those who may struggle with traditional talk therapy. Her goal is to empower clients to re-imagine their lives, work through challenges, and effect positive changes through the creative exploration of their inner worlds.
