Dance therapists are trained professionals who use movement and dance as a form of therapy to help individuals express themselves and improve their emotional and physical well-being. They work with various populations, including children, adults, and those with specific challenges such as autism, depression, or trauma. Through guided movement, clients can explore their feelings, enhance their self-awareness, and develop coping skills. In a dance therapy session, clients may engage in improvisational dance, structured movement exercises, or creative expression. The therapist observes and facilitates the process, ensuring a safe environment for exploration. This therapeutic approach can promote healing, boost self-esteem, and foster social connections among participants.
