We present a case of oppositional defiant disorder, in school. The student had learning difficulties and severe difficulties in social relationships. The overall objectives of art therapy process include (a) improving the levels of attention in the tasks and the autonomy, and (b) incorporation of socially appropriate behavior in conflict situations. In the sessions, techniques were used to promote communication and expression of feelings. Finally, we discuss the progress in understanding social situations and positive strides in the construction of identity in adolescence
