Expressive Writing: Foundations of Practice (It's Easy to W.R.I.T.E. Expressive Writing)
Expressive writing is life-based writing that focuses on authentic expression of lived experience, with resultant insight, growth and skill-building.

- How writing poetry helps primary school children develop emotional intelligence
- A model for helping teens at risk write safely about their deepest hurts
- How to engage reluctant writers and help them develop vital writing skills
- A simple and effective way to build structure, pacing, and containment into life-based writing
- How discovering the wellspring of inner speech helps strengthen writing skills
- A method to transform expressive writing into insightful problem-solving
- Easy strategies to write family stories
- Innovative ways to bring literature into the classroom to hone critical thinking skills through reflective practice
- Practical, time-tested ways for expressive writing in guidance and counseling
- Case studies for all levels of learners: Primary, teens, college-age, and adults
Whether you are an educator, a counselor, a facilitator or a writer, youâ€™ll find this volume an invaluable and innovative resource for the foundations of practice of expressive writing.
