The technique of drawing what “gave” you the sensation of a bad dream, or the so called nightmare and then in a second moment , ask questions to it, like who are you, what do you need? what did you appear for? is incredibly  therapeutical…kids  use their imagination and flow  answering, facing their fears and transforming them into something  they can manage, they usually give the image a NAME and then the fear of it  tends to vanish.

A técnica de DESENHAR O QUE ASSUSTA QUANDO SE TEM UM PESADELO, E , NUM SEGUNDO MOMENTO DIALOGAR COM O OBJETO QUE PROVOCOU O MÊDO, é extremamaente eficaz com crianças e adolescentes.

Desenhando você manipula, transforma o que assusta em algo mais próximo e também mais seguro. Ele se transforma no “teu monstro” ….e conversar com ele, fazendo perguntas simples do tipo : o que é você? o que quer comigo? porquê? do que precisa?

também permite que o jovem entenda mais sobre suas imagens…PORQUE AL FINAL…QUEM é QUE SONHOU??? 🙂

he was called “Devil in Red”

foi chamado de “Diabo vermelho”
