Turning Trauma Into Triumph: Philly Therapist Uses Expressive Arts and eGaming Bus, Changing the Way Philadelphia Treats Trauma
Philadelphia, PA – 7/17/2025 - Trauma healing in Philadelphia is getting a bold new look—on wheels. Help For Higher Inc, led by Maurice Young, MS, LBA, LMSW, is delivering mental health care through a first-of-its-kind Expressive Arts and eGaming Healing Bus. This mobile unit combines art therapy, music, and wellness-focused video gaming to help children, teens, and adults process trauma, manage stress, and build emotional resilience.
Maurice Young, licensed therapist and author of Turning Trauma to Triumph: 8 Transformative Steps for Self-Healing, created the Trauma to Triumph Healing Experience to make therapy more accessible, engaging, and culturally relevant.
“Traditional therapy isn’t always enough to reach people who are hurting, especially youth and communities affected by generational trauma,” says Young. “By mixing art, movement, and even eGaming, we help clients heal in ways that feel safe, fun, and empowering.”
How the Healing Bus Works
The Expressive Arts and eGaming Healing Bus travels to schools, barbershops, and community events, providing a creative, stigma-free way to talk about mental health.
Inside the bus, clients can:
🎨 Paint, draw, or create safe-space collages to express emotions.
🎵 Use music and rhythmic exercises to calm the nervous system.
🕹 Participate in eGaming Wellness Sessions designed for stress relief, teamwork, and confidence building.
🖼 Explore trauma release techniques like body mapping and storytelling through art.
The eGaming component, which includes mindful sports games and cooperative play, helps youth build social skills, manage frustration, and experience positive competition—all while subtly introducing mental wellness practices.
Meeting Philadelphia Where It’s At
The mobile format makes therapy accessible to communities that might not otherwise seek it. From after-school programs to neighborhood wellness events, Help For Higher Inc is making mental health care as approachable as a community gathering.
Philadelphia’s long battle with stress, violence, and generational trauma makes this innovative service more important than ever.
