Description

Pages

 This book attempts to provide for any reader who is interested in the "talking cures" an understanding of the etiology and the resolution of all forms and intensities of human emotional discomfort. Depression, anxiety, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsiveness, hypochondriasis and problems with pain are shown to be related and sharing a common root with marriage problems and difficulties in interpersonal relationships, as well as with crusades against injustice, sin and corruption. For those who have an aversion to drug therapies this book will be helpful in understanding what unconsciously goes on between patient and therapist, counselor and client, that can resolve emotional discomfort in all its varied forms. This is the first book that presents the psychodynamics of codependency, how it develops and how it is resolved.
