Abstract

COSTA, Alice Maria Bovy de C.. A place to be. Socio-psychodrama at a refuge for children. Rev. bras. psicodrama [online]. 2009, vol.17, n.1, pp. 137-154. ISSN 2318-0498.

Within this paper we present our experience of a socio-psychodramatic intervention at a refuge for HIV positive children, and our understanding of the reparative work of these children's matrix of identity in the light of psychodramatic concepts such as residual links, fantasy roles and auto-tele. We also bring together contributions of systemic theory and general psychology, emphasising the efficacy of sociodrama when working with such intense suffering, aiming at the preservation of spontaneous-creative man.

Keywords : Ambiguous loss; links; spontaneity- creativity; core role.
