NEWS
Press Release from The UK Community Psychology Network
For
immediate release
16 October 2007
Changing politicians' minds about changing our minds?
"Cognitive
Behaviour Therapy and associated approaches are comprehensively
problematic. Primary prevention is the only way to substantially
reduce socially, economically and materially caused distress. To
be effective primary prevention must involve social rather than
cognitive change. Reducing income inequality in our society would
be one of the most effective ways to reduce psychological distress and
ill health”, says the UK Community Psychology Network.
