Development of emotional intelligence through children's and teenagers' artistic expression

The seminar aims at the comprehension of methods of approach and psychological intervention with children and teenagers through the use of symbolic expression. It also aims at training participants to use art in child counselling.

It is addressed to psychologists, with long experience on the field, who wish to use drawing as a medium for the expression of children's feelings. It is also addressed to kindergarten teachers, primary school teachers and educators who wish to help students manage their feelings more effectively as well as find ways to deal with hard feelings with the help of non-verbal communication (art language, art expression).
