The Photo-Instrument as Therapeutic Intervention in Mental Health Care (Paperback)

This original work deals with innovative work within the field of mental health care and is of special interest to nurses and other caregivers who are engaged in recovery-oriented care. It describes in detail the therapeutic value of photography. At the heart of this hermeneutic phenomenological study is the contribution of photography to the process of meaning making that patients go through when reflecting on illness and how to live a life beyond illness.
