Abstract
This article presents a case study of a child previously diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder who underwent a process of therapeutic intervention. The aim of the case study is to highlight the effectiveness of puppetry as a tool in individual and family psychotherapy. The author adopted the Embodiment, Projection and Role model developed by Sue Jennings, in order to facilitate access to symbolic transformation; this should decrease psychological symptoms and transform those facets into creative expression.
