Wendy Kagan talks with psychiatrist Bessel van der Kolk—a renowned trauma expert and author of several books, including The Body Keeps Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Treatment of Trauma (Viking, 2014)—who contends that drama, song, writing, and other expressive activities are more effective than talk therapy. Dr. van der Kolk will be teaching a workshop at the Garrison Institute in April entitled, Trauma: Embodiment, Synchrony and Finding Your Voice.
