童话与儿童心理治疗

On the Relationship Between Fairy Tales and Children's Psychotherapy

自弗洛伊德开始,童话在心理治疗中沿用已久.精神分析学派是把童话应用到心理学研究中最多的心理学流派.近年来童话的心理治疗作用再一次得到重视.童话是适合儿童心理治疗的有效工具.童话在心理治疗中的作用具体表现为:童话具备投射测验的功能,能够投射出儿童自己无法说清的情绪和内心困惑;童话能够处理儿童的心理情结,帮助儿童整合与理清混乱的情结,并且促成儿童的心理成长;童话中还隐藏着为人处世的经验和与人交往的典范,儿童通过对童话的阅读能够潜移默化地吸收成人世界的经验,由此促进了儿童的社会化.

It is a long period since Freud paid attention to the function of fairy tales in psychotherapy.Psychoanalysts apply fairy tales to psychotherapy most frequently among all the psychological genres. In recent years,the psychotherapy by fairy tales has been revalued. Fairy tales are a quite suitable tool for young children＇s psychotherapy,and they can reflect childen＇s perplexity and deal with their psychological complex,thereby promoting their psychological growth. In addition,childen can absorb the experience of adult world imperceptibly by reading fairy tales,which can accelerate children＇s socialization .
