FAQ About The Role of Puppetry in Therapeutic Practices
How does puppetry serve as a therapeutic tool?
Puppetry serves as a therapeutic tool by providing a safe, imaginative space where individuals can project their feelings and experiences onto the puppets. This displacement allows them to explore difficult emotions and experiences indirectly, which can lower anxiety and defense mechanisms. By interacting with puppets, individuals might find it easier to communicate issues they might otherwise find overwhelming or embarrassing.
