“…C. Campbell, 2002;Carlson, 1997;Coker et al, 2002;Pico-Alfonso et al, 2006). In comparing the results of our pilot study with those previously done in this population of women, the study's findings parallel those of Crespo and Arinero (2010), Teague, Hahna, and McKinney (2006), Hernandez-Ruiz (2005), Bradley and Follingstad (2003), Pomeroy, Kiam, and Abel (1998) and Sultan and Long (1988). Specifically, this study supports the findings of Teague, Hahna, and McKinney (2006) and Hernandez-Ruiz (2005) where group music therapy had beneficial effects on depressive symptoms and anxiety for women who had experienced IPV.…”

This repeated measures, descriptive study investigated the effect of Music and Account-Making for Behavioral-Related Adaptation (MAMBRA), a group psychoeducation music intervention, on symptoms reported by 41 incarcerated and community women survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV). Psychosocial measurements included: the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale; Speilberger State Anxiety Inventory; Rosenberg's Self Esteem Scale; the UCLA Loneliness Scale, version 3; and the Index of Spouse Abuse. MAMBRA was administered over four sessions for five groups of women. Through descriptive and univariate statistics, psychosocial measures positively changed across the MAMBRA sessions. These findings suggest MAMBRA impacted IPV symptoms and may be an efficacious intervention. Future longitudinal studies with diverse samples are warranted.

“…The studies investigating outcomes related to (c) self-concept are much less consistent than studies investigating the other outcomes mentioned earlier. The studies investigating global selfconcept (Brownell & Heiser, 2006;Constantino et al, 2005;Teague et al, 2006) seem to yield inconclusive or nonsignificant results. However, when the treatment focuses on domain specific self-esteem such as safety self-esteem (Hughes et al, 2010) or career self-efficacy (Chronister & McWhirter, 2006;Davidson, Nitzel, Duke, Baker, & Bovaird, 2012), the results are much more consistently positive and significant.…”

A meta-analysis on domestic violence interventions was conducted to determine overall effectiveness of mental health programs involving women and children in joint treatment. These interventions were further analyzed to determine whether outcomes are differentially affected based on the outcome measure employed. To date, no meta-analyses have been published on domestic violence victim intervention efficacy. The 17 investigations that met study criteria yielded findings indicating that domestic violence interventions have a large effect size (d = .812), which decreases to a medium effect size when compared to control groups (d = .518). Effect sizes were assessed to determine whether treatment differed according to the focus of the outcome measure employed: (a) external stress (behavioral problems, aggression, or alcohol use); (b) psychological adjustment (depression, anxiety, or happiness); (c) self-concept (self-esteem, perceived competence, or internal locus of control); (d) social adjustment (popularity, loneliness, or cooperativeness); (e) family relations (mother-child relations, affection, or quality of interaction); and (f) maltreatment events (reoccurrence of violence, return to partner). Results reveal that domestic violence interventions across all outcome categories yield effects in the medium to large range for both internalized and externalized symptomatology. Implications for greater awareness and support for domestic violence treatment and programming are discussed.

“…For example, art therapy has been applied to the following client populations: survivors of intimate partner violence (e.g., Allen & Wozniak, 2011;Frohmann, 2005;Haymore et al, 2012) children who have been exposed to intimate partner violence in their homes (Buschel & Madsen, 2006;Mills & Kellington, 2012); sexual assault and abuse (Pretorius & Pfeifer, 2010;Saltzman, Matic, & Marsden, 2013); incest (Huss, Elhozavel, & Marcus, 2012); and trauma in general (Mendez-Negrete, 2013; Rappaport, 2011). Other creative therapies, such as guided imagery (Binkley, 2013) and music therapy (Teague, Hahna, & McKinney, 2006), have been suggested as appropriate for fostering healing for survivors of intimate partner violence. Therefore, there is growing recognition of the potential value of these approaches for addressing trauma symptoms and promoting healing among survivors of past abuse and trauma.…”

Existing research demonstrates the potential value of arts-based interventions for survivors of abuse and other forms of trauma. The See the Triumph Healing Arts Workshops were designed to provide survivors of intimate partner violence and sexual assault with an opportunity to express themselves and connect with others through arts-based interventions. When appropriate, using the art developed through the workshops to create an art exhibit can be useful for raising awareness and giving voice to survivors in the local community. The preliminary results of the pilot evaluation suggest that the workshops were well-received and allowed participants to experience emotional expression, connection with others, and greater self-awareness. Keywords: art | arts-based interventions | creative therapies | creativity in counseling | domestic violence | group counseling | intimate partner violence | sexual assault | trauma Article: Intimate partner violence and sexual assault are major public health problems that have significant implications for survivors' mental health. The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, 2015) defines intimate partner violence as "physical, sexual, or psychological harm by a current or former partner" (para. 1). Thus, abusive intimate relationships can include one or more types of violent, abusive behaviors, and the severity of this abuse can range from one-time events to chronic patterns of violence that escalates over time (CDC, 2015). Sexual assault describes forced or coerced sexual contact that is attempted or completed by a perpetrator against a victim (CDC, 2015). Sexual assault can occur within intimate relationships, but it also may occur in other types of relationships (e.g., family or acquaintance), as well by a perpetrator who is a stranger to the victim.
