ABSTRACT
Have a relaxing session. Ask the young person to draw a poster of their safe haven; a place where they would feel totally relaxed. Provide as many different media as possible for the artwork, eg, coloured paper, paints, glitter, fabric and card, as being creative is relaxing. Once they have finished, you may want to photocopy the picture and put it up on your wall. This helps the young person to have ownership over your office. Ask them how they could use their poster to relax in the future. You could suggest having the artwork as a prompt for visualising a peaceful relaxing place.
