Abstract

disorder who were identified as available and placed in two experimental and control groups (15 people in
each group).To collect data from March et al.'s Separation Anxiety Questionnaire (1997) And Achenbach

combination of group play therapy and painting in 10 sessions of 45 minutes; and the control group did not
receive any intervention. Research data were analyzed by one-way and multivariate analysis of covariance.
Findings: The results showed that the combination of group play therapy with painting led to the reduction
of internalizing and externalizing problems of children with separation anxiety disorder.. According to
the obtained results, the combination of group play therapy with painting can be used as an effective and
complementary treatment along with other methods to promote mental health and prevent behavioral
