Although this study provides great insight into how art therapy supports grief and loss in correctional settings, I’d love some clarification on a couple of points. The case vignettes offer strong examples, but were any standardized assessments used to measure the program’s effectiveness beyond observations?

Moreover, since expressing vulnerability in prison can be difficult, were any specific adjustments made to help participants feel more comfortable engaging in therapy? Understanding how these challenges were addressed would give a clearer picture of the program’s overall impact.
