Since its earliest origins, photography has proved to be a powerful catalyst for conversation-building. As photographic technology and approaches to psychotherapy have developed, a broad spectrum of ways in which photography can be used in counselling have evolved.
Picture This is a set of 75 original colour photographs that capture different aspects of our journey through life: the mundane, the whimisical the soulful, the playful, the challenging, the imaginative, the chilling and the joyful. can be used separately, as a whole, or by selecting sub-sets.
The photos that make up Picture This are particularly accessible because they provide slices of both urban and rural landscapes and lifestyles, and are culturally diverse. As a conversation-building tool, Picture This needs minimal introduction. Like all Innovative Resources' tools it does not require any special training and can be used just as effectively with individuals, groups and teams. It can be used by people of any age, in just about any setting.
Picture This is a powerfully interpretive tool. Photographs have a unique ability to stimulate the imagination, memory and emotions. They can be catalysts for people to tell their stories and prompt reflection about values and priorities. For this reason Picture This will be used in schools and prisons, in group work and in counselling sessions—even in creative writing classes. We hope it will take its place as an essential component in the ‘toolkits' of anyone who wishes to work creatively with others.
