Summary/Abstract: This theoretical study explores the possibilities for applying the conceptual framework of contemporary existential analysis, developed by Alfried Längle, in therapeutic work through puppetry. The focus is placed on the structural model of the four fundamental motivations as a foundation for understanding and supporting existential development. The potential of puppet therapy is discussed as a symbolic and dialogical space for fostering existential competence and strengthening key aspects of personal growth. The study contributes to interdisciplinary dialogue and expands the application of the existential-analytical approach to work with children.
