Keywords:

Abstract
This article presents the great work that art and body/ corporal expression play in the resilience and improvement of the self-concept and body image in women suffering trauma abuse. It introduces a way of working which will be the key for the implementation of therapeutic programmes based on body expressive contents with the aim of building a renewed and respected body image. This will take place on the basis of creative proposals where the body and the movement are the main axes for working in the improvement and the knowledge of oneself and her relationship with others.Downloads
