CHILD GRIEF: THE VALUE OF CLEAR COMMUNICATION AND PHENOMENOLOGICAL-EXISTENTIAL PLAY THERAPY AS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY IN THE ELABORATION PROCESS
The theme of death and its nuances is a fact that brings suffering to every individual in the biological, social and psychological spheres and, since childhood is a phase of development that builds the life cycle, there is theoretical and scientific evidence that the child experiences a grieving process for parental loss. Therefore, this article focused on legitimizing the premise that phenomenological-existential play therapy can become a way to facilitate the process of elaborating grief in children through play. For this, a bibliographical research was carried out.

Abstract:
The theme of death and its nuances is a fact that brings suffering to every individual in the biological, social and psychological spheres and, since childhood is a phase of development that builds the life cycle, there is theoretical and scientific evidence that the child experiences a grieving process for parental loss. Therefore, this article focused on legitimizing the premise that phenomenological-existential play therapy can become a way to facilitate the process of elaborating grief in children through play. For this, a bibliographical research was carried out.
