Therapeutic photography: enhancing patient communication.

Gibson, Neil

Abstract

Using photography with patients to help them express concerns, investigate coping strategies and learn from their peers is known as therapeutic photography. The practice has benefits to both professionals and participants, particularly with 'hard to reach' populations who may feel intimidated or disempowered. Neil Gibson explains how this intervention can be structured in the health setting.
