Expession Anew program for pa- tients, called Expression Ther- apy, is being developed at the' Whitby Psycbiatric Hospital. Developed by nurses Gail Crossman and Mina'Schire, Expression Thèrapy Ilencour- ages patients to ventilate their feelings and thoughts through creative activities. Some of the activities offered, include paintîig,' string art, d cay moulding, candie making and leather work. The new.programn enables patients to paricipate in- therapy immediately after ad- ,mission while they are waiting for placement in off-the-ward activiiesoffered by Occupa- tional >Therapy.> 1 Those patients confirêedto the wards because> of un;con- trollable anti-social behaviour can benefit from self expres- sion therapy with staff guid- ance. Self Expression Therapy promotes staff-patient com- munication through discus- sions with the patients about the activity, and staff can gain some valuable insights in- to the patient's emotions 'and behavior. Hospital officiais say the new therapy program is very useful in the management of disturbed behavior. A hostile patient soon rids, himself of aggréssion after poundîigda or working' out with padded gloves called socker boppers. The aim' of expression therapy is to teach the patient ways of alleviating anxiety, methods which can be used continuously throughout his life, not just in a hospîtal setting.
