Dear Colleagues!
Council of the Russian Association of Psychodrama regretfully and sorrowfully reports that on Monday morning, January 22, 2018, after a serious long illness passed away Nifont Dolgopolov, one of the leading Russian psychodrama therapists, director of the Moscow Institute of Gestalt and Psychodrama, co-founder FEPTO.
Nifont for a long time courageously fought with a deadly disease and continued to conduct the groups, accept clients and lead the Institute.
In our memory, Nifont remains strong, courageous, kind and sympathetic, always with an open smile and a wise look, ironic and straightforward, honest and subtly sensing, a talented psychotherapist and writer.
This is a huge loss for all of us.
Very sorry!
We grieve!
