The Body Speaks: Theraputic Dialogues for Mind-Body Problems
ISBN: 9780465007165 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This distinction has left many clinicians unable to treat successfully patients whose symptoms--such as headaches, conversion paralysis, and seizures--arise from the place where mind and body meet. In this book, the authors describe a powerful narrative therapy, one that relies on the wisdom and everyday language of patients' real-life stories instead of the...
