Igrotherapy

We all come from childhood. In childhood, playing games, we could easily and safely solve any problem. We did not focus on the little things (what would others think about us, how we look from the outside? Etc.), we were just ourselves. But, growing up, we began to behave differently, focusing on the public opinion. We do not want to say that they need to be neglected, but sometimes we become different, complicating our own lives, relationships, thinking up whose problems do not exist, are afraid of something that, in fact, poses no threat. Modern psychologists use the methods of igroterapii for the fact that a person is distracted from the factors influencing his consciousness and mentally returned to childhood, because adults, playing "children's" games can solve their "non-children's" problems.

What is adult therapy?

To begin with, we offer a definition, from a medical point of view. Igroterapiya is a method of therapeutic and psychotherapeutic influence on a person or a group of people who suffer from emotional disorders, fears and neuroses. At one time, scientists such as M. Klein, H. Hug and A. Freud, a method of treatment in the form of a game, were called game therapy. With the help of this form of therapy, even adults use gaming methods with the help of specialists to try to overcome conflicts, various disorders.

Psychologists can use different types of game therapy, such as group game therapy, and individual. Everything depends on the violation of a person's psychological state and the true problem that worries him. The positive side of this method of psychological influence on the person is that the problem is not perceived as something complicated, it is simply simplified and viewed from a different angle, which makes it possible to lose the exciting, vital situation in the game and make the right decision. Exercises group igroterapii psychologists often apply for problems in the family. The uniqueness of this method is that the situation in which it is not the real one that is played out, but the emotions and relations are real.

Functions of game therapy

Game therapy performs several functions at once: diagnostic, therapeutic and training. Immediately explain that the therapeutic value is to eliminate intrapsychological limitations of the human personality in the game. Teaching - teaches how to behave in this or that situation. Diagnostic allows the psychologist to determine the psychological portrait of a person's personality.

There is no universal or uniform technology for igraherapy, which could be applied in all cases. How many people, so many problems associated with their psychological state. People who, for whatever reason, become hermits are grouped together and set one goal before them, so that they can find the right way out of the situation.

From all of the above, you can safely say that from problems or fears should not be run, they need to be solved, because the problem is still a problem. We can not solve problems alone, we need close people who love you and specialists. If a person turned to a psychologist, he is already on the right way to solve the problem, because the realization that the problem exists is the first small but significant step on the way to a solution. It is not necessary to adhere to the old stereotypes that only psychologically unbalanced people turn to psychologists. After all, a psychologist will help you look at your problem differently. After all, what seems insurmountable to you, just requires more time for a correct decision or overcoming the obstacle.
