Abstract

LOPES, Ivone  and  DELLAGIUSTINA, Marilene. Child psychotherapy mediated by children's stories: case study from the perspective of Psychodrama. Rev. bras. psicodrama [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.1, pp. 28-37. ISSN 0104-5393.

This work aims to present the use of children's stories as a playful tool in the psychotherapeutic work with children. It presents the theoretical basis and a clinical case of a child who was taken to care, having the aggressiveness as the main complaint. At the end, with the use of a resource that was both playful and dramatic, it was observed the possibility of reducing the repetitive and conserved responses, as well as increasing the unprecedented and creative responses, through a growth in spontaneity as a catalyst of this creative process as proposed by psychodrama theory.

Keywords : child psychotherapy; psychodrama; tale; spontaneity; role playing.
