Therapy Technique: A Lot on My Plate by Liana Lowenstein

[lisaferraro]

I really like this technique and I feel that it would work well with older children. I have an activity that I do whereby I read a book about worries and then i have the children write down their worries and feed them into a monster face, which has been glued onto a piece of paper and this works well with younger children. Thank-you for sharing.

Love the metaphor! How would you modify this to use with a 6 year old?

Can this technique be used with very young children? Specifically ages 3-5. Looking for activities to use with very young kids to help them to identify their feelings and develop coping skills.

Thanks for the great video. Would you consider this to be a type of REBT therapy?

What would you think of doing this with rocks?
