Talk therapy seems to be a default go-to for processing trauma but it’s not the only way. There are so many tools and therapies out there that can help us along our journey in processing trauma, but one of the biggest challenges is figuring what exactly works best for you.
After asking on Facebook and LinkedIn what my next episode of Veteran Art Studio should focus on - writing was the most popular response. Mind you, I was thinking an anatomy or portrait drawing instruction video was going to win out, but I’m glad writing won out.
