The work addresses trauma recovery through clinically informed expressive arts approaches, emphasizing connections between emotion regulation, sensory experience, and therapeutic creativity. It also frames the role of imagination and embodied processes in communication and restoration of functioning for individuals and practitioners working with affected populations. The author’s background is grounded in trauma-informed expressive arts training and clinical practice.","TRAUMA AND EXPRESSIVE ARTS THERAPY  \nAlso from Cathy A .
