PhotoTherapy Around the World: Eating Disorder Treatment Center



PhotoTherapy around the country: Creative Solutions Therapy incorporates photography as a therapy method and I love to spotlight others doing the same: a treatment center for eating disorders in California is helping women to increase self esteem and address body image issues through the use of photography 📷💛

"Robin Ruth of San Francisco is providing Castlewood’s female clients with a means of improving their body image and increasing their overall feelings of well-being. She is accomplishing this with ecofemography, her original therapy model, which involves photographing women in natural settings..." 


Visit my website www.csolutionstherapy.com for more info on Creative Solutions' use of photography in therapy. Ideal clients would be someone dealing with issues such as trauma, self esteem, or anything they would be initially hesitant to open up about. Clients DO NOT have to be an artist, have experience with photography, or have to own a 'fancy' camera in order to benefit from PhotoTherapy. It is less about the act of taking the photo, and much more about the conversation that comes about after discussing memories, thoughts, feelings, judgments, etc, that a photo may elicit.
