I HATE You, Daddy!!!, Larry James

Addictions Backfire, Jennifer Kunst, Ph.D. – WOMEN in RECOVERY

But with each layer of understanding comes a greater opportunity to help those who struggle to free themselves from an attachment that has become destructive. I come to the question as a psychoanalyst, of course, and so I am interested in what lies beneath the surface of … [Read more...]
