IntroductionThe global context has resulted in an increase in migration of certain populations who seek protection and/or a hope for a better future. Whether for economic, social or political reasons, inhabitants sometimes hastily leave their country in order to find refuge elsewhere. Some minors take the path of exile alone and cross borders and seas to reach France: they then respond to the French designation of Unaccompanied Minors (MNA). Their migratory journey is long and perilous, a source of trauma. Their physical and mental health is impaired. Upon their arrival in France, they present significant post-traumatic symptomatology: post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, disorders with somatic symptomatology. Psychologists and psychotherapists working with them find themselves in a complicated position with many pitfalls: the need for an interpreter, the representations of the psychologist, or even the absence of a request for support. Psychological care becomes even more complex. MethodA review of the literature indicates the effectiveness of art therapy in treating migrant children and adolescents accompanied by their families. Art therapy is particularly useful to help migrant minors to experience physical and psychological relief, to express their feelings, their emotions, to reduce their sense of isolation, to develop their creativity and to begin a process of acculturation. In this article we have chosen to present three studies that demonstrate the effects of art therapy on these accompanied migrant children. As these studies show, art therapy has many benefits for these subjects: reduction of symptoms linked to PTSD such as anxiety, depression and development, among other things, of self-esteem, self-confidence and resilience and many others. AnalysisThis study allows us to highlight the relevance of designing effective and protocolized art therapy treatment programs for unaccompanied minors. ResultsIn the case of Unaccompanied Migrant Minors, a very limited number of studies are beginning to consider art therapy as an essential part of the psychotherapeutic process for these subjects. We also present three such studies whose results complete and confirm those from studies concerning accompanied migrant children. ConclusionTo conclude, it seems that art therapy is a practice that must find its place among the essential tools of field practitioners working with Unaccompanied Minors. Working with adolescents who are in physical, administrative and psychological limbo, art therapy would make it possible to overcome certain pitfalls and open up a number of possibilities, to reinforce their resilience and to re-actualize their creative potential.
