7/ psychotherapy. The goal of meaningful psychotherapy is to make itself unnecessary “We all hope that our patients will finish with us and forget us, and that they will find living itself to be the therapy that makes sense” —Donald Winnicott

INFURIATING @google business verification process and no help help desk. Is there an actual person I can speak to about resolving issue????

How might collaborative fictional storytelling impact our emotions & memories? Can it offer new ways of thinking about our grief & connect imaginatively to those who have died? Our open access co-authored article explores these questions. @Crowded__Room tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

#NationalGriefAwarenessWeek Day 2: "The 5 Stages of Grief" is misnamed. It should be "The Grief Megamix". Grief isn't a linear process you move through in an orderly way. It's a cacophony of emotions, each blaring out randomly for you to drunkenly dance to as best you can.

Tomorrow is the final day of #ChildrensGriefAwarenessWeek #CGAW23 Sharing this popular quote, and sending our support tonight to those who are bereaved. Grief is love with nowhere to go 🧡

Excellent psychoanalytical discussion - why does social media weaponise our reactions and make it increasingly difficult to have a nuanced discussion. @ThisJungianLife @DrAaronB

Brilliant piece by Sam Carlisle on the scandal that is special educational needs provision. I met Sam last week to discuss the issue and my advice to the government would be not to rile her in the way ⁦@GillianKeegan⁩ has done. Fix the problem. metro.co.uk/2023/11/08/the…
