Psycho"therapy" and The Stories We Live By

This book is aimed at a general reader who is committed to living as a citizen in a democracy as well as any individuals concerned that psychiatry controlled by Big Pharma is or has hurt their lives more than it has helped.The book argues that the term "mental illness" is an unscientific authoritarian moral judgement of problems in living that prevents real understanding of the emotional pain of those seeking professional help. It goes on to describe the author's concept of psycho"therapy" as a democratic relationship free of medical jargon that helps suffering individuals understand and change the narratives by which they live. The volume is composed of six chapters, including an "Introduction," "Philosophical Issues," "The Politics of Human Relationships," "Mental Illnesses," "Mental Health," "Education," and "Psycho"therapy."
