client-therapist relationship

The landscape montage technique is a drawing technique used in psychotherapy. When using this technique, drawing progresses by alternating between the therapist’s instructions and the client (drawer’s) drawing. When the relationship between the drawer and the therapist becomes well established through this process, the mental image to be drawn becomes more vivid, which is considered to cause desirable psychological changes in the drawer. The process of a developing relationship between the drawer and the therapist was investigated by quantitatively analyzing action of the drawer, which was used as an index of the strength of the relationship. Sessions in which a therapist used this technique (N = 17), each with 17 different participants (drawers) was video-recorded. The therapist also evaluated each session using clinical-psychological parameters. Six independent coders coded all recorded actions made by drawers during the period between finishing a drawing and listening to the therapist’s instructions. The variety of actions and temporal changes in the distinctiveness of actions were computed. Results indicated a relationship between the therapist’s evaluations using clinical-psychological parameters and the drawer’s actions.
