The objectives of a session are diverse: personal well-being, self-confidence, communication, autonomy, physical rehabilitation, development of language, motor skills, memory, awakening of the senses, etc.

We are in the “here and now”: the idea is to experience the encounter in the present moment.

Personal approach or supported by an institution (medical-social structure, EHPAD, etc.).
