Hand puppets and dolls in psychotherapy with children.
Hand puppets and dolls can be used in psychotherapy with children to establish rapport, to help children address specific issues, and to serve as fantasy substitutes for stress-provoking figures in the environment. They are easily obtained or can be made by the therapist.
