System of education is always in focus of public attention. However, according to heightening the educative standards and increase of study loading teachers begin increasingly to experience “burnout syndrome”. This is why it is not surprising that in most schools now teachers have no forces, no time to tackle the problems of schoolchildren of graduating classes. Youth remains confronting his or her experiences and have nobody to seek for help. I propose to introduce lessons of art-therapy because psychological assistance for adolescents in the period of preparation to exams allows them fuller realize possibilities of personality development. Similar lessons can increase the self-esteem, help to graduates in controlling their behavior. It is of importance because control above the behavior and emotions helps to people in decision making, in right choice making and responsibility bearing for subsequent results.

Art-therapy system possesses abilities to reproducibility and translation of some methods, techniques which application allows receipt of stable positive results. At the same time specific trait of technologies of such type is broad creative variation. Rational-technological components of pedagogical activity are inseparable from irrational-spontaneous, improvised, supposing estheticism, artistry, and certain theatricality of behavior, technique of presentation of his/her own personality.
