摘要
Objectives: The authors present a description of a theater workshop (%26quot;Metamorphosis Project%26quot;), developed at the Bologna Eating Disorders Center. %26lt;br%26gt;Design: The workshops are aimed at young, hospitalized patients, and are largely based on the principles of drama therapy. In this article, this therapeutic modality is introduced by a discussion of the theoretical basis for the use of theater in psychiatry from the points of view of several preeminent psychiatrists, including Freud, Winnicott, Klein, and Moreno. %26lt;br%26gt;Results: Three (3) clinical reports are presented. The satisfaction rate among the first groups of participants was 93%. %26lt;br%26gt;Conclusions: It is suggested that theater can be useful in decreasing defense mechanisms, allowing a patient-focused approach, mitigating specific symptoms, and improving the quality of life during the hospital stay.
