Journal of Poetry Therapy, published since 1987 by Human Sciences Press in New York.
A sampling of the article titles to be found in Journal of Poetry Therapy:
“Let mother earth wrap her arms around you: The use of poetry and nature for emotional healing.”
“Sister Stroke: The story, the poem, the dance.”
“SOULSPEAK: The use of ancient oral poetry forms in therapy.”
And, of course, a poetry journal wouldn’t be complete without some therapeutic poetry:
“and I a white Darth Vader
shorn of my blackened shellacked soul,
years of torment slivered away.”
Can you feel the healing? Can you heal the feeling?
