美國舞蹈動作治療協會 (American Dance Movement Therapy Association) 近日在官方粉專上,公告分享了舞蹈動作治療(Dance/Movement Therapy) 最新修定的定義 :
舞蹈動作治療是一種心理治療的方式 — 透過舞蹈、動作、身體覺察與體感式溝通,促進個人、家庭和社區的治癒與身心健康。
相對於過去的定義,看見了更多文化和社群的意涵,除了是專業的心理治療方式,也走進社會,以增進健康福祉~

We Are the ADTA—and Our Words Matter.
As our field continues to grow, the American Dance Therapy Association is proud to share the newly adopted definition of dance/movement therapy—shaped through years of collective dialogue, scholarship, and lived expertise. This definition reflects who we are today: a body-based, culturally responsive, relationship-centered profession committed to creative processes that support healing and transformation.
Dance/Movement Therapy is defined by the ADTA as the psychotherapeutic use of dance, movement, body awareness, and embodied communication to foster healing and wellness for individuals, families, and communities.
Using a shared definition strengthens the visibility and integrity of our work. When we use consistent language across research, education, clinical practice, publications, and social media, we amplify our collective voice and help the public better understand the impact of dance/movement therapy.
✨ We invite everyone connected to the ADTA community to integrate this definition into your professional materials, syllabi, websites, and outreach efforts.
This is the heart of We Are the ADTA—together, we define who we are and support the continued growth of our field.
