ABLE, an informed practice approach and application for dance/movement therapy in the medical rehabilitation setting, was developed during a six and a half month internship at a medical rehabilitation hospital in Philadelphia, PA. This approach focuses on the use of adaptive tools and ambulatory equipment to promote creative movement, self-expression, and increased coping skills for individuals in this environment. Integrative techniques were explored and applied during dance/movement therapy sessions, as well as physical and occupational therapy co-treatments, while working with individuals recovering from traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury and stroke. Current literature was reviewed on relevant topics such as: disability models, grief and loss, physical outcomes, and adaptive equipment. Three case vignettes were included to demonstrate several techniques used throughout the process. The project highlights a need for further education and research in this area and provides suggestion for future application. Keywords: Dance/movement therapy, adaptive equipment, chronic sorrow, ambiguous loss, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, stroke.
