The role of advisors
- Professional helper - shows the child and his family new possibilities for action and conflict resolution, so that the learning process can begin.
- A person of trust - the counselor should become a person of trust so that the child will be treated carefully and show understanding at all times. Building a relationship with trust should be a central concern.
- Teammate - go down to the child's level. Play a game with a child, e.g., play a peer in a game
- Mediator - gives the child and family guidelines for behavior. Encourages the child to express himself/herself in the game and tell what he experienced through the game
