Objectives:
The author describes the use of psychodrama in individual, short-term psychotherapy with a schizophrenia-diagnosed patient. The aim of these sessions was to reduce auditory hallucinations.

Methods:
Psychodrama transfers internal conflicts, symptoms and problems to the stage, into a space of ‘surplus reality’. This paper includes stories of three patients and descriptions of their monodrama sessions, where they were working with auditory hallucinations. On the stage the patients fought with their hallucinations and tried to find their resources and possibilities. They have been under pharmacological care throughout the whole therapy.

Results:
After ten sessions, which took place every two weeks, their symptoms reduced significantly; the voices, which had been heard every day, started appearing only from time to time. The patients experienced the voices’ gradual loss of authority over them. The voices lost their omnipotence and omniscience. Half a year later the reduction of auditory hallucinations was maintained.

Conclusions:
Monodrama as a method of therapy for auditory hallucinations seems to prove an effective tool to obtain significant improvement in such symptoms.
