Metaphorical cards are a real science. Every time we turn to them, in fact, we turn to the most real and deep that is in us.nbsp;Set of cards “Everything is OK!?” – this is a story about life, about choice, about us.
This is an effective psychological tool designed to work with:

• any kind of relationship: – diagnosis; – correction; – conflicts; – questions of understanding real experiences, etc.

In based on the idea of metaphorical cards “Is everything OK!?” lies the principle of choosing life positions. There are four of them in total:
I’m OK – you’re OK
I’m OK – you’re NOT OK
I’m NOT OK – you’re OK
I’m NOT OK – you’re NOT OK
There are 48 images in the deck. 12 for each of 4 groups. However, these positions are not displayed in the deck, i.e. there are no different color shirts, no text inscriptions indicating which position this or that image belongs to, since this often makes it impossible to give true associations. We know the idea, and in analysis we can attach ourselves to it. “As an author, I would like to move away from this. Let everyone have their own meaning.” You see 48 images with different kinds of interactions and relationships.
Why the name? I’m ok! or am I okay? – phrases that I suggest you think about. Often, a person himself does not know the exact answer. It seems that everything seems to be fine, but at times it becomes sad, uncomfortable, and incomprehensible. Or vice versa, everything is seen only in black, but in reality there is a lot of ignoring.
Metaphorical cards “Everything is OK!?” – a tool for deep work in individual and group formats, in face-to-face and online counseling.
Ways to work with the deck:
Technique “What’s going on?”
Purpose: working in this technique allows you to “look” at relationships, as if from the outside, to track, identify, and in the long term change patterns of behavior that lead to difficulties in interaction. The technique gives an understanding of what is really happening in a relationship.

Technique “My aspirations. Work with a goal.”
Goal: awareness of your aspirations, analysis of the “correctness” of making plans and moving towards them.
