Karpman’s Drama Triangle

Developed by Stephen Karpman in 1968, the Drama Triangle describes three roles, Victim, Rescuer, Persecutor which are dysfunctional, and can become part of an individual’s presentation leading to behaviours that are unhealthy. Positions are largely unconscious and typically an individual will identify with a primary position which is often set up in childhood. Each role has its own feelings, desires, and responsibilities which can become part of an individual’s script.

This refresher session will explore how to conceptualise a child’s behaviours through the lens of the Drama Triangle, how this plays out in their family and in therapy sessions. We will also consider the preferred position that you take as a child therapist and how this can impact on your clinical work.
