Can creativity help heal trauma, anxiety symptoms, depression, and Stress?

When you're living in survival mode, creativity is often one of the first things to disappear. Trauma, PTSD, anxiety symptoms, depression, and Stress can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted and disconnected from the hobbies and activities you once loved.

In this episode of Practical Solutions for PTSD, Lori explores how creativity helps regulate the nervous system, process emotions, and support healing. Discover why creativity isn't just for artists, but a powerful tool for reducing emotional overwhelm, building resilience, and reconnecting with joy and purpose.

You'll learn practical, low-pressure ways to bring creativity back into your life, even if you don't consider yourself creative, and why simple acts of creating can become meaningful steps toward healing.
