The history of 'personality disorder' services is problematic to say the least. The very concept of 'personality disorder' is under heavy fire, services are often expensive and ineffective, and many service users report feeling that they have been lied to, stigmatised and excluded. Yet while there are inevitably challenges involved in working with a population that can be complex, demanding and destructive, creative networks of learning do exist - people who are striving to provide progressive, compassionate services for and with this client group. Working Effectively with 'Personality Disorder' shares this knowledge, articulating an alternative way of working that acknowledges the contemporary debate around diagnosis, reveals flawed assumptions underlying current approaches, and argues for services that work more positively, more holistically and with a wider, more socially focused agenda.

After being told by numerous psychics that he had walked with Jesus two thousand years ago, John Davis, a professional comedy performer decides to find a regression therapist to help shed some light on the mystery of his past. The regression revealed what many had already told him-he is the reincarnation of the Beloved Apostle, John. The messages revealed through John's regression are not only profound, but are very relevant to your daily life. You will laugh and cry as Sharon takes you on an extraordinary spiritual journey with her friend John as they not only discover that he was Jesus' disciple and closest friend, but through his regression and memories, he brings forth the original teachings of The Master. These messages teach us about the simplicity of our connection to the Divine Source, which allows us to experience co-creation and healing with God in our daily lives.

Sexual Offending and Mental Health draws together theoretical, clinical and mental health issues for the range of professionals working in the community and in-patient settings with sex offenders and those who have behaved in sexually inappropriate ways. The contributors describe current influential models of sexual offending and the developmental, psychological and social factors involved. They discuss the prevalence of personality and mental disorders in known sex offenders and the impact these disorders have on their treatment and management. They describe clinical work with individuals, their partners and families, and also consider the impact of this work on professionals. The book includes an outline of current approaches to risk assessment, an overview of the recent changes in legislation in England and Wales, and suggestions for multi-disciplinary management in the community. This book will be essential reading for professionals working in health or criminal justice settings with people who have committed sexual offences or whose sexual behaviour has caused concern for others.
