We therefore conducted a systematic review to summarize the existing evidence for therapeutic dance as an intervention for healing after sexual trauma. We searched 5 major databases to identify intervention studies on the use of therapeutic dance for individuals with histories of sexual trauma. Studies were included based on the following criteria: 1) the study involves individuals who have been exposed to sexual trauma; 2) the study reports on any form of dance as a therapeutic intervention; and 3) the study reports on dance intervention outcomes. A total of 1,686 sources were identified. Of these, 11 articles met eligibility criteria and were assessed. Reported outcomes were extracted and organized into emergent domains. We found that therapeutic dance acts upon three broad domains\u2014affect, self, and interpersonal relationships \u2013 and can be delivered in diverse settings. Across the studies, dance showed benefits on outcomes. However, a significant weakness of the current peer-reviewed literature is the lack of robust empirical intervention research on dance therapy. Overall, the emerging literature suggests that therapeutic dance is a potential intervention for those who have experienced sexual trauma. The review findings presented here can be used to inform practitioners and systems of care targeted for those who have been subject to sexual trauma.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/15248380221086898","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,25]],"date-time":"2022-04-25T06:15:28Z","timestamp":1650867328000},"page":"2143-2164","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Therapeutic Dance for the Healing of Sexual Trauma: A Systematic Review"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"24","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9959-4109","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joyce","family":"Lee","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Janeet","family":"Dhauna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer A.","family":"Silvers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, University of California Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Meredith H.","family":"Houston","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Swan Within, Los Angeles, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1664-4551","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elizabeth S.","family":"Barnert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-15248380221086898","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/a0018605"},{"key":"bibr2-15248380221086898","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1524838015602736"},{"key":"bibr3-15248380221086898","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1541204014566286"},{"key":"bibr4-15248380221086898","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.acap.2017.07.009"},{"key":"bibr5-15248380221086898","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cpr.2012.09.005"},{"key":"bibr6-15248380221086898","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-030-23645-8_4"},{"key":"bibr7-15248380221086898","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00844132"},{"key":"bibr141-15248380221086898","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1191\/1478088706qp063oa"},{"issue":"6","key":"bibr8-15248380221086898","first-page":"219","volume":"17","author":"Chace M.","year":"1953","journal-title":"Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic; Topeka, Kan"},{"issue":"2","key":"bibr9-15248380221086898","first-page":"111","volume":"9","author":"Chivers-Wilson K.
