Working with the child’s inner world needs to be carried out safely and non-intrusively, with respect for the child’s own pace and state of being. This is why anyone using Drawing and Talking learns to stay in the world of the child’s drawing. The child sets the pace and decides what to bring to the session. Often, in a first session, a child will produce a very neutral drawing, something in the room or the view from a window. Once they feel safe, their imagination begins to unfold.
It is now estimated that ten percent of pupils in our schools, suffer with some kind of mental health problem. Every Child Matters now requires that schools meet all the needs of all children. Drawing and Talking provides an effective schoolbased intervention, which is intended to complement rather than replace the work of CAMHS, Art or other specialist therapists, enabling children who would otherwise go untreated to get the help they need before problems become entrenched.
