[ send me this report ]

Social scientists, researchers into human psychology, writers, and even “pop psychologists” have demonstrated an affinity for the mythological and heroic aspects of the human psyche. Individuals have been able to gain a better understanding of and appreciation for their own capabilities through their association with a particular culture, classic mythology, or spiritualism.

[ send me this report ]
A 15 page discussion of the importance of dealing with families in the treatment of schizophrenia. Observes that family reaction to a formal diagnosis can vary from acceptance of such a diagnosis and subsequent cooperation with psychiatric professionals to rejection of the diagnosis and outright belligerence when it comes time to deal with those in charge of guiding their family member to recovery. Contends that such recovery balances, however, on the ability of the therapist to direct intervention at the family unit as a whole even though only subsystems or individuals from the family are actually seen by the therapist.

Psychological Effects of Multiple Sclerosis
[ send me this report ]
A 13 page paper discussing research into the psychological effects of multiple sclerosis (MS). One of the concurrent effects of MS is that of depression. Other psychological effects arise from MS as well, but more in terms of individuals’ reactions to their diagnoses. Where depression is different is that it can qualify on both fronts in the presence of MS: it is seen as both a symptom and result of the disease, a state that the physical action of MS makes more likely as well as a symptom of the individual’s reaction to his disease. Other psychological effects are seen as arising from MS as well, including anger, self-doubt, memory loss, social isolation and others. The purpose here is to review six articles researching these effects, followed by the review of six articles addressing treatments for them. Bibliography lists 17 sources.

Psychosynthesis
[ send me this report ]
4 pages in length. Drawing upon the deeper, more fractured components of an individual's 'self,' psychosynthesis is a process whereby these otherwise separate elements are brought together in order to align these multiple facets of the person's holistic being. This blending attribute is meant to integrate the myriad aspects of mind and body to which conventional theories have only given passing glances; traditional psychotherapies go only so far into a person's overall being in order to rebalance the mind, leaving out many critical components the foster healing of the whole individual rather than merely pieces and parts. Gestalt is one particularly effective model of change that embraces the holistic tenets of psychosynthesis and is useful in short term work. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
