In August and September 2022, the trainers’ team conducted the “Children and War. Teaching Recovery Techniques” therapy sessions for children who came to rest at the “Forest Song” sanatorium, located near the city of Kamianets-Podilskyi. 136 children received psychological and emotional support. They also learned how to use self-help techniques to deal with stress, anxiety, fears and intrusive memories. Among the participants there were local children, children from vulnerable families, and children who fled the war zone. All of them were happy to attend the sessions with the trainers, Larysa Sushko, Oksana Strilchuk, and Tetyana Solovei. They gladly visited them in their free time after sessions just to talk about personal issues. The staff of the sanatorium was also grateful, because such work with children’s hearts in the conditions of war is priceless.
