Imagine meeting someone who is just discovering dramatherapy. What would you like them to know? Perhaps it's something you wish someone had told you, a reminder that uncertainty is part of learning, or a thought about what makes this profession meaningful to you. #DTWeek2026

Beginning something new can bring excitement, uncertainty and a whole collection of questions. For those discovering dramatherapy, there may be curiosity about the training, the work, the people they might meet and the kind of therapist they might become #DTWeek2026

What is one thing you have learned from another person that has stayed with you? Share it in a sentence, a short video or another creative form. You never know where a small piece of wisdom might travel, or who might need to hear it. #DTWeek2026 #Dramatherapy #BADTH

Much of what we learn about being human comes through our encounters with other people. Sharing what we learn helps knowledge travel beyond the individual. Today, we celebrate the sharing of knowledge, experience and creativity across the arts therapies. #DTWeek2026 #BADTH

Who or what inspires you in your dramatherapy journey? Tell us in a few words, share a short video or respond creatively. And if someone has helped you see things differently, perhaps this is an opportunity to acknowledge them. #DTWeek2026 #Dramatherapy #BADTH

We don't become who we are in isolation. Along the way, other people can shape how we see ourselves, what we believe is possible and how we come to understand our work. Today, we celebrate the people who inspire us and the connections that help our profession grow. #DTWeek2026

What drew you to dramatherapy? Was it a person, a moment, a story, a question or something you couldn't quite put into words? You could tell us in a sentence, share a short video or choose an object that represents your journey. #DTWeek2026 #Dramatherapy #BADTH

What drew you towards becoming a dramatherapist? Perhaps it's a curiosity about people and their stories. Perhaps it's a love of creativity, a belief in the power of play, or an interest in how we communicate beyond words. youtu.be/r7hgGDzt8A8 #DTWeek2026 #Dramatherapy #BADTH

What helps you feel seen, heard or understood? Share a word, an object, a gesture, a short video or a few lines of reflection. Sometimes the smallest things can communicate something profound about what it means to connect with another person. #DTWeek2026 #Dramatherapy #BADTH
