Phototherapy is an international therapeutic modality combining a focus on self-image, an interest in otherness, and the release of creative and imaginative aids to healing. It shares in both the optimistic, positive ethos of humanistic psychology and the tragic vision and scepticism of psychoanalysis. Moreover, it is situated in the world ‘out there’ and also in the internal world. Hence numerous therapeutic approaches can learn much from phototherapy – I certainly did, for the book was an eye-opener and I hope it is read by all in the ‘psy’ field.\u003c\/em\u003e - \u003cb\u003eAndrew Samuels, Professor of Analytical Psychology University of Essex; Former Chair, United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis collection offers valuable insights into the development of phototherapy in Europe and North America and its fascinating reports from the field bring us right up to the present – to the structures of feeling displayed by a photo-saturated, socially-networked digital age.

We are surrounded by images, by photographs and film, more so now in the digital era when most mobile phones can also be used as cameras and images transferred immediately from one person to many. Yet their use within psychotherapy and counselling is relatively unexplored. Arts therapists have begun to encourage clients to use film and photography, computers and IPads to facilitate image making as these may be more familiar than ‘traditional’ art materials. This exciting book could bridge the gap between the arts therapies and verbal psychotherapy to the considerable benefit of clients – and practitioners. \u003cstrong\u003e- \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfessor Diane Waller OBE, Emeritus Professor of Art Psychotherapy, Goldsmiths, University of London, visiting Professor, Imperial College, London\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDel Loewenthal and his colleagues take the reader on an odyssey from the origins of their techniques, through history, and into photography as part of the arts-based research and practice of today.
