In this Papers Podcast, Eleanor Keiller discusses her JCPP Advances Special Issue paper ‘A systematic review of dramatherapy interventions used to alleviate emotional distress and support the well-being of children and young people aged 8–18 years old’ (https://doi.org/10.1002/jcv2.12145).

There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.

Discussion points include:

What is ‘Dramatherapy’ and why it is well suited for children and young people.
Why dramatherapy has ‘slipped under the radar’ when it comes to research.
Recommendations for how dramatherapy can be best used to support children and young people.
Implications of the findings from the paper for child and adolescent mental health professionals.
Recommendations for those considering future research in dramatherapy.

In this series, we speak to authors of papers published in one of ACAMH’s three journals. These are The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP); The Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMH) journal; and JCPP Advances.
