Based on the results, it was possible to verify the drawing as an important resource in the understanding the personal complex of the patient, as well as symbolic expression of the anxieties, fears, and re-signifying them. It was also verified the emergence of healthy psychics resources, being configured as an important tool in the psychological treatment.
