When treating a client who has suffered from interpersonal trauma - whether chronic childhood abuse or domestic violence, for example - talk therapy isn't always the most effective course.

Que se passe-t-il dans la tête d’un psy ? Ce journal croisé entre Irvin Yalom et sa patiente éclaire les mécanismes de la thérapie et le chemin de la guérison. Lorsque Ginny Elkin, jeune écrivaine prometteuse mais très perturbée, vient le consulter, le Dr Yalom, pour encourager sa patiente à écrire, trouve une tout autre approche de la thérapie que ses confrères : Ginny, qui n’a pas d’argent, paiera ses séances avec des écrits, tandis que le thérapeute consignera, lui aussi, ses notes impressionnistes et non cliniques après chaque séance. Guérir à deux voix est l’aboutissement littéraire de ce pacte.

In unserer schnelllebigen Gegenwart sind Stress, Anspannung und auch Traumatisierungen weitverbreitete Probleme und die daraus resultierenden Beschwerden von Kopfschmerzen über Infektanfälligkeit bis hin zu psychischen Erkrankungen schränken die Lebensqualität erheblich ein. Denn was Tiere und Kinder noch ganz selbstverständlich tun, baut angestaute Anspannung ab und kann diese aus dem Körper „ausleiten" und somit als hochwirksame Entspannungsmethode für Körper und Geist zugleich dienen, darüber hinaus kann es im professionellen Kontext sogar zur Traumabehandlung genutzt werden.

Why does an international footballer with the World at his feet decide to take his own life? On November 10, 2009, the German national goalkeeper Robert Enke stepped in front of a passing train. He was 32 years old. Viewed from the outside, Enke had it all. Here was a professional goalkeeper who had played for a string of Europe's top clubs, including Jose Mourinho's Benfica and Louis Van Gaal's Barcelona. Enke was destined to be his country's first choice for years. But beneath the veneer of success lay a darker story.

An essential defense of the people the world loves to revile - the loners - yet without whom it would be lost. The Buddha. Rene Descartes. Emily Dickinson. Greta Garbo. Bobby Fischer. J. D. Salinger: Loners, all - along with as many as 25 percent of the world's population. Loners keep to themselves, and like it that way. Yet in the press, in films, in folklore, and nearly everywhere one looks, loners are tagged as losers and psychopaths, perverts and pity cases, ogres and mad bombers, elitists and wicked witches.

Adult children of narcissists have been conditioned to downplay, dismiss, and ignore their experiences. This survival skill of staying below the radar can cause even very skilled clinicians to miss subtle opportunities to connect.

Mending the Soul, newly revised and updated, provides a well-researched biblical and scientific understanding of the complexity of abuse, its effects, and an integrated path to healing.

Este no es un libro escrito exclusivamente para psicólogos, sino para todo aquel que se interese en el dolor y en la posibilidad de superarlo. Sus protagonistas no han sido el fruto de un capricho literario, sino que los he visto desgarrarse, reír, llorar, frustrarse y enojarse en mi consultorio semana tras semana, escribía Gabriel Rolón en el prólogo de la primera edición de Historias de diván, en junio de 2007.

Катя Морен и Максим Морен предлагают остановиться и с помощью их концепции «дома внутри нас» понять, что с нами происходит.
