dc.description.abstract
This paper provides a literature review of Dance and Movement Therapy (DMT) approaches for women survivors of gender-based violence (GBV), focusing on Greek dance in social, pedagogical, and therapeutic contexts. It also outlines a 10-session DMT intervention for women survivors of domestic abuse at the Oranje Huis shelter in Amsterdam, conducted over six months and comprising preparation, recruitment, five open DMT sessions, the intervention, and post-program debriefing. Data collection and analysis employed mixed methods. Qualitative data included Jungian interpretations of participants' artwork, unstructured feedback, a final focus group, and individual post-program discussions, analysed for five themes: 1) Embodiment and therapeutic experience, 2) Self-discovery and awareness, 3) Transformation and growth, 4) Cultural context and relationships, and 5) Impact on personal life and community. Quantitative data were gathered using pre- and post-intervention assessments (Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory). While results indicated increased anxiety, likely stemming from emotional processing during body-focused DMT sessions, a notable increase in self-esteem was also observed.

Aquest article revisa la Dansa Moviment Teràpia (DMT) per a dones supervivents de violència masclista (GBV), centrant-se en la dansa grega en contextos socials, pedagògics i terapèutics. Presenta una intervenció DMT de 10 sessions a Oranje Huis d'Amsterdam, utilitzant anàlisis de mètodes mixts. Les dades qualitatives incloïen interpretacions jungianes, comentaris, grups focals i discussions, analitzades a través de cinc temes (p. ex., encarnació, autodescobriment, transformació). Les dades quantitatives de les avaluacions prèvies i posteriors a la intervenció (escala d'autoestima de Rosenberg, STAI) van mostrar un augment de l'autoestima però també un augment de l'ansietat, probablement a causa del processament emocional en sessions centrades en el cos. Les troballes destaquen el potencial de curació i empoderament del DMT.
