This study aimed to investigate the effects of using psychodrama in helping Chinese people deal with relational issues within families. The study was conducted using phenomenological method to explore a two-day experiential-training workshop that focused on interpersonal relationships among Chinese families. Data was collected through interviews and focus groups with the three protagonists and three selected members from three psychodrama sessions respectively on the theme of couple, parent-child, and sibling relationships to understand what protagonists and members experienced during the sessions and which elements that occurred in the group process they perceived as helpful to their relationships. The results revealed: the broader sociocultural context (macro-system) in which the families were embedded were represented to the protagonists through psychodramatic techniques such as 'concretization', 'role play', 'role reversal', and 'mirror'. These vivid representations helped enhance protagonists' awareness and deepen their thoughts on how contextual factors affect their families and themselves, with which they became more understanding and accepting. Finally, discussion on the interrelations between the micro and macro systems were illustrated for the reference of practices and future studies.
