Phoenix Center for Experiential Trauma Therapy

“My experience learning from Dr. Scott Giacomucci has been one of the most enriching parts of my Psychodrama journey. When I first began studying Psychodrama, I felt overwhelmed by the vast amount of literature and wasn't sure where to start. Dr. Scott's books have become invaluable resources for my learning. His YouTube channel is another outstanding resource, offering clear, engaging, and generous educational content that complements his books beautifully. Beyond his publications, I have had the privilege of learning directly from Dr Scott during his trainings in India, Philadelphia, and through his online workshops. Each experience has been deeply experiential, thought-provoking, and professionally transformative. One of the highlights of my journey was attending a three-day training at the Phoenix Centre for Experiential Trauma Therapy in May. Learning in the very space where Dr Scott teaches and practices was both inspiring and memorable. His depth of knowledge, humility, warmth, and ability to bridge theory with practical application make him an exceptional teacher and mentor. I highly recommend his books, trainings, and educational resources to anyone interested in Psychodrama, Sociometry, Group Psychotherapy, or trauma-informed practice. Thank you Dr Scott”

“As someone who works in behavioral health and regularly helps families find the right level of care, I hold treatment providers to a high standard and the Phoenix Center for Experiential Trauma Therapy consistently exceeds it. Their staff is incredible: clinically skilled, deeply compassionate, and genuinely invested in every person who walks through their doors. What sets them apart is their experiential approach to trauma work. Whether someone is navigating trauma, grief and loss, or substance use, the team meets them where they are and does the deeper work that creates real, lasting change not just symptom management. I trust the Phoenix Center with the people I care about most: those in genuine need of healing. When I refer someone here, I know they'll be treated with expertise and dignity. I can't recommend them highly enough.”

“I just completed my first professional training with Dr. Scott Giacomucci, and I am awestruck. This training was so personally and professionally impactful. Scott creates so much safety. Even though he is one of the leading experts in trauma treatment and psychodrama, he leads with kindness, humility, respect and welcome. I cannot wait to be back for my next experience.”

“I took the weekly in-person women's group with Danielle, exploring creative expressive arts for post-traumatic growth. As an artist, it took me time to fully understand how sacred this space was for healing and not performing. My evolution in healing is in great part because of Danielle's facilitation style and the supportive community in the room each week. We were all on this journey together. I fully understand the potential for creative practices within oneself and in communion with communities. I am grateful to Danielle and the Phoenix Center for working with me in my full humanity, including providing a sliding scale offering.”
