Photography shows us how to look at things from different
perspectives, to reflect, to communicate and to express ourselves
in a way that goes beyond words. The creative and introspective
qualities of this accessible arts medium make it an ideal tool for
use in therapeutic contexts. In this book, Claire Craig explores
how professionals working with groups can use photography to
promote self-exploration and positive change. She explains how the
technique works, who it can help, and how to set up and run a
group. Each chapter revolves around a key self-development theme,
such as communication, reflection, relationship-building and
self-esteem, and contains activities which are suitable for all
ages and abilities. For each activity, requirements are clearly
specified, and both a warm-up and extension activity offered. Along
the way, examples of photographs taken by participants in response
to particular themes, and the explanations which accompany them,
are provided as inspiration. This practical guide can be used in
group work across a broad range of contexts, including in schools,
colleges, youth groups, community settings, residential care,
in-patient and day hospitals. It will be of interest to
occupational therapists, arts therapists, social workers, teachers
and any other practitioners interested in ways of promoting
personal development through creative means.
