writing therapy

Writing therapy, also known as expressive writing, is a therapeutic approach where individuals use writing to explore and process emotions, thoughts, and experiences. By putting feelings into words, people can gain clarity, reduce stress, and increase self-awareness. This structured practice encourages honest reflection, helping to identify patterns, resolve inner conflicts, or simply release difficult emotions. Writing therapy can be a standalone activity or part of broader mental health treatment, offering a private, accessible way to support emotional healing and resilience without the need for verbal disclosure.
