| Abstract: | Summary. The survey aims at the visual therapeutic intervention "Search for Mood" of the department Prevention and Service of a GGZ- establishment. "Search for Mood" is a course which evolves around one's own life story. The methods; life-review and reminiscence are used in this course. It is a qualitative survey held among 10 former participants of "Search for Mood" . The course was attended by people of 55 and older who were having depressive complaints. The interviews have been held by means of half-structured questions and completed with information of the introduction- and evaluation forms. In my survey I have been researching the effect of different creative workforms on an individual level. |
