Description

It was easy to sit and read this in one sitting mainly because it’s so accessible and also interesting.

I really liked that there was a critique of the therapist in the notes too - found that quite helpful. I took the latter approach, which may have hurt my initial enjoyment as I found the story difficult to get into at first.Because of this the comic never takes off as a story and heightens the sense that it is an introductory-type pamphlet on psychotherapy to those interested in it. In addition to private practice as a Jungian Analyst, he works internationally with parties and leaders as a political consultant. With most of the pictures, illustrated by an unknown artist Junko Graat, there are footnotes that provide more theoretical reflections, and explain the importance of a scene. She was born and raised in the wilds of North London and still lives there with two lovely homosexual housemates and a terrible cat.

One has the choice of reading the story, and then going back for the footnotes, or reading page-footnotes-page-footnotes straight through. As soon as he did so, and it took him a year, his Spanish girlfriend married him and he never stole anything again.It's an interesting graphic novel with extensive notes accompanying each page that follows one chap as he goes through therapy in hopes of ridding himself of a particular compulsive behavior.

Organisational and corporate clients include Tesco, Nokia, DelMonte, Ford, Everton FC, City of Tokyo, and the NHS. PHILIPPA PERRY (author) is a psychotherapist, psychotherapy supervisor and a fine art graduate living and practising in London. All-in-all, if you were ever interested in a look behind the curtain of psychotherapy, this is the book for you. These notes are rather like a really good commentary track on a DVD, in which the director gives more background detail on specific points. I don't have the figures right now, but if you check into it, I think you'll find I'm right about that.In here she touches on the concepts of bracketing, boundaries, trigger theory, transference and counter-transference, value judgements and value systems, giving us a deeply absorbing and compelling insight into her working environment and some of the sophisticated tools she employs during it.
