Abstract:
The current ·situation in the NHS places demands on therapies to be evidence-based, . so that clients can choose from therapies of proven effectiveness. There is a lack of consensus about how to measure outcome in psychodynamic therapies. Few methodologically rigorous studies demonstrate the dynamic changes that psychodynamic approaches aim to achieve. In addition, little is known about the client's experience of being in psychodynamic therapy. In order to continue to be funded in the NHS, psychodynamic therapies need to better demonstrate their strengths in terms of process and outcome.

These elements, which surfaced gradually and piecemeal, include strong feelings associated with the Oedipus complex, difficulties with masculine self-identification, feelings of rejection, unresolved grief, wishes to regress to t

Abstract:
Many philosophers throughout Christianity’s history have asserted the existence of intermediary beings or, in more familiar terms, angels and demons. According to Christianity, God, angels, demons, and human souls are all thought to share a common nature, namely ‘spirit.’ This ‘spirit’ is thought to signify immateriality. Yet each is said to interact with the physical world. God, who is conceived of as omnipotent, can interact with the world simply at will. Human souls are paired with bodies which provides them the equipment to interact with the world. Angels receive special assistance from Go

Although it is generally acknowledged and accepted that case formulations are useful in psychotherapy treatment, there is significantly little research illustrating how case formulations are useful in treatment.

It has been necessary, in the formative stage of community psychology, to be clear about what it is not, in terms of establishing a progressive psychology that meets an urgent need. So too, psychoanalysis started out needing to be very clear about how it differed from previous practices, and what its aims were. Over the last hundred years psy

Abstract:
Progressive South African psychologists have recognised the need for community approaches in South Africa which maximise access to psychological intervention and which value politically aware psychological practice. Few extended analyses of such interventions exist in the literature, and community psychology has been critiqued for its lack of theory. This study aims to provide an extended analysis of a community intervention conducted with a group of Primary Health Care Workers. The intervention was motivated by their request for psychological skills in order to enable them to work more effect

Abstract:
Background: According to Grawe’s psychological therapy approach, conflict reduction can be expected not only in psychodynamic, but also in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). This was tested in an effectiveness study. Changes in cognitive conflicts, along with those of symptom severity and well-being were analyzed during alcohol inpatient treatment. Methods: Four times during treatment, groups of patients receiving psychodynamic therapy (n = 45 patients) or CBT (n = 49 patients) were measured and compared. Lauterbach’s Online Conflict Test was used to measure conflict. Symptom severity and wel

They have, however, received little attention from psychological research and practice. This literature review explores what psychological interventions are available for low-income women. It is found that psychodynamic therapy is largely unavailable to low-income women for a variety of reasons, which rang
