Phototherapy and Therapeutic Photography in a Digital Age is divided into three sections: In the first, an introduction and overviews from different perspectives; in the second, approaches and contexts, including phototherapy, re-enactment phototherapy, community phototherapy, self-portraiture, family photography. This is followed by a conclusion looking at the future of phototherapy and therapeutic photography in terms of theory, practice and research.

It will be of particular interest to psychological therapists and especially psychotherapists, counsellors, psychologists and art therapists, as well as photographers and others wishing to explore further the use of photographs therapeutically within their existing practices.

Del 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. If a book about those subjects is to be written, then these are the persons who should do so. Providing an excellent overview of phototherapy and therapeutic photography, Loewenthal's Phototherapy and Therapeutic Photography in a Digital Age is a necessary read for anyone who is preparing for a career in arts-based therapies. As a historical treatise on photo-based therapeutic approaches, this book is effective. - Seifer & Kaelber, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 58, August 2013
