The teaching staff at the IIPR Ancona branch has long been fostering both therapists’ personal growth and trainees’ group development. Alongside traditional systemic tools such as the genogram, family sculptures, and photographs, newer instruments were introduced, including the landscape genogram, the relational scenogram, body techniques inspired by theatre, and the use of objects and music. Innovations and variations of established tools have also been developed. This article presents the main devices employed in the training group and their integration, offering insights into further reflection.

Keywords: creativity, genogram, relational scenogram, sculpture, differentiation of self.
