It's time to sum up the results of quite a long work, think about what turned out better and what worse. I’ll write it down for myself, maybe it will be interesting or useful for someone else. So, it was a series of classes with an 11-year-old girl, and the tasks before me were very diverse. It should be noted that the classes took place in the presence of the mother, with her active participation, and were addressed to both participants. In essence, we were developing healthy personality skills in the child and parent. Skills, abilities that are often not considered as a skill. It is all the more valuable that the teenager’s mother decided to pay attention to this. I mean a variety of skills, such as the ability to distinguish feelings, name them, express them, recognize the feelings of other people, build boundaries, understand your value, needs, and be able to take care of yourself. Such activities helped my mother to be more stable, to be closer to her daughter, to understand her, to contain her strong feelings. During the meetings, situations arose when psychological help in its purest form was needed (it was a situation of crisis), it was provided, but mostly we remained within the scope of their original tasks. Everyone, including me, received great help and pleasure from using metaphorical cards. Our helpers were the “Hands”, “Emotions and Fates”, “Cockroaches in the Head” decks. Also, at the beginning of my work, I used the “City of Emotions” templates, but almost immediately my young client abandoned them and did all the work herself, leaving only the size of the frame. These drawings fascinated her very much and, according to her review, were her favorite part of the assignments. Continuing with the topic of assignments, another one I liked was inventing stories based on a metaphorical map or series of maps, either spontaneously during a session or as creative homework. It was fascinating to compare stories based on the same cards from different people. I often took part in such creativity. This was very interesting for myself, and my participation also created a mini-group situation, which expanded the possibilities. We began a series of meetings (and they took place almost every week) with a conversation in which we discussed who a psychologist is, with whom and how he works, who and with what can ask for help, what will you do. Sets of metaphorical cards were presented. The age and development of the child also made it possible to reveal the mechanism of the “magic” of the cards; my client gave examples of metaphors and associations, which we returned to more than once in the process of work. At the very first meeting, the “My State Right Now” technique was used. Our further classes were divided into approximately equal parts: lessons in psychological literacy or the development of emotional intelligence, the second was a complete immersion in the world of associative cards, related to the topic of the day. The lesson lasted 45-50 minutes. We discussed emotions and feelings, their differences in strength and stability, their functions, and bodily manifestations. For each meeting, my participants were offered a list of synonyms for feelings, which mother and daughter independently ranked by intensity; it was interesting to compare. The developmental bonus was that it became necessary to clarify the exact meaning of certain words. Admittedly, the young client, in the final discussion of the entire work, did not appreciate these moments very highly, perhaps they reminded her of school lessons, or she felt insecure in this process, but I tried to support her and teach her the ability to withstand her temporary incompetence. But drawing up a “thermometer of the day” or a multi-colored “cocktail of feelings” was always easy and pleasant, just like drawing a house of sadness and joy, meticulousness (yes, there was such a thing). Working with cards (the second part) was always exciting. The dialogues between the cards and the choice of the name of the composition were very interesting. The “Cockroaches in the Head” deck was a great success. The first reaction of disgust gave way to a surge of activity and enthusiasm. The subpersonalities of my young client were friends, argued, invited assistants,.
