Description
Arts and Narrative therapies have been shown to be beneficial for Veterans and Service Members traumatized by life experiences who may be suffering from PTSD. The Warrior Stories Platform provides therapists and Service Members a tool to create rich, healing stories in a graphic novel format. Art libraries are provided in a variety of themes, and a rich symbol library helps authors express complex feelings without having to render concrete scenes in detail. Characters, backgrounds, props, and symbols are all highly configurable. The platform allows use in individual, group, and therapist-supervised settings.
