Counselling Psychology

For most of us, the major questions of life continue to perplex: Who am I? Why am I here? How should I live?

Through the biographies and theories of luminaries ranging from Sigmund Freud to Erich Fromm, Frank Tallis shows us how to think about companionship and parenting, identity and aging, and much more.

Sociometrics offers many small, incremental moments of healing that cumulatively help to peel back the layers of the onion, revealing ever deepening and widening aspects of both the self and the self in relation to others.

Según los “altos ideales del amor romántico”, la “vida real en pareja” sólo podrá ser imperfecta.

She poses disturbing questions: How do we depend on order, when chaos is a necessary part of existence?

In this landmark book, Brazilian psychoanalyst, Norberto Keppe, offers a scientific study of the link between possession and psychopathology. Keppe's contention is that the disastrous idea perpetuated in both medicine and religion that strange manifestations in the human being are completely physical, and only occasionally spiritual is allowing malignant spirits free rein in their spurious influence over human beings. Keppe's innovative therapeutic perspective is that this mistake must be corrected for humankind to have any chance of returning to a normal peaceful and abundant life.
