Play & Development

In a world as volatile, chaotic and uncertain as ours, people around the globe are dealing with feeling overwhelmed, frightened, anxious, and depressed. We overthink and become isolated. 

As children, we learned through play. As adults we can play throughout our lifespan in order to continuously grow and develop. Adult ensemble play makes space for creative and collaborative activity where we can access endless facets of our experiences — including the pain, isolation, anxiety, fear, anger, frustrations and cultural biases — to create new possibilities for human development. 

Marian incorporates improvisational play, performance and philosophical conversation in her social therapeutic life coaching practice to inspire human and community development through group creativity.

Using social therapeutics, a playful and performatory group-building approach, Marian helps adults play and invent improvisational spaces and activities in which they can experience themselves as ensemble performers of their lives. As a group leader, Marian empowers people to activate their creativity.

She leads with a welcoming and open heart - without judgment or critique - helping people discover ways that being honest and vulnerable can be strengths.
