How Geek Therapy Plays Into Expressive Arts Therapy: A Literature Review, Caroline Bryan
How Geek Therapy Plays Into Expressive Arts Therapy: A Literature Review, Caroline Bryan
Expressive Therapies Capstone Theses

This engagement with expressive approaches utilizing affinity-based interventions can lead to a deeper sense of understanding of the client’s intra-, inter-, and extra-personal relationships. Through this literature review of expressive arts therapy and geek therapy, primarily focusing on video games in therapy, clinicians from all walks of life can …

The DMT group called Mindful Movement was facilitated weekly as single sessions to adults ranging …

Expressive Therapies Capstone Theses

This literature review focuses on the benefits of incorporating nature as co-therapist and kin rather than only material or metaphor, particularly in the treatment of people who have experienced trauma and or marginalization. According to Herman (1997), wounds made relationally must be healed relationally, and the literature reviewed in this paper suggests that connection with the “more-than-human” world (Abram, 1996), and coming back into a sense belonging in the larger web …
