Comic book therapy

Okay kiddo, have you ever heard of comic books? They are like really cool books with lots of pictures and words that tell stories about superheroes and villains. Well, some people have found a way to use comic books to help people with their feelings and emotions.

It's called comic book therapy. Basically, a person talks to a therapist about their problems and then the therapist helps turn their story into a comic book. The comic book can show how the person is feeling and what they're going through.

Seeing their story in a comic book can make it easier for the person to understand and deal with their feelings. It can also be easier for them to talk about their problems with the therapist because sometimes it's hard to find the right words to describe how you're feeling.

So, comic book therapy helps people to express themselves and work through their emotions. And who knows, maybe one day you can even make your own comic book therapy to help others too!
