Abstract
Many people have desperate and unique life histories. Many seek psychological counselling in order to free themselves from their traumatic memories (Cardinal, 1992). This article defines and describes how individual vocal improvisation and a choir support program (developed by the lead author) can enhance existing practices for addressing psychological trauma. The efficacy of these creative approaches are described and supported by underlying theories, a pivotal case study and research in this area.
