Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the influence of art therapy on emotional expression in trauma survivors in Turkey. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Art therapy has been found to help individuals process and express complex emotions related to their traumatic experiences, providing a non-verbal outlet for emotional release. Participants in these studies reported improved emotional regulation, reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression, and enhanced overall emotional well-being. The creative process facilitated by art therapy allows survivors to explore and articulate their feelings in a safe and supportive environment. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Expressive arts therapy theory, trauma-informed care theory & cognitive-behavioral theory (CBT) may be used to anchor future studies on the influence of art therapy on emotional expression in trauma survivors in Turkey. There is a need to expand training programs for art therapists to include specific techniques for working with trauma survivors. Policymakers should advocate for the integration of art therapy into standard trauma care practices in healthcare settings, including hospitals, mental health clinics, and community support programs.
