conceptual schema and models of the psychoses

coping with countertransference, counteridentification and counterresistance

multimodal treatment and the importance of context

training and supervision

problems peculiar to groups

treatment in a therapeutic community.

A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
