Psychology

[close] This global discussion group has been designed to encourage debates about important and underreported issues of our era. All you need is an enquiring mind and a desire to gain or share “underground knowledge”. This is also a place to discuss the controversial topics explored in The Underground Knowledge Series (non-fiction books) by James Morcan & Lance Morcan as well as the Underground Knowledge podcast show.

[close] Welcome, therapists! This group is intended to provide psychotherapists with a place to discuss the books they've read and loved, request recommendations for literature on specific clinical topics, and build a psychotherapist community around continual professional growth through reading. Please share your favorite books with other therapists by adding to our community bookshelf. Write on our Discussion Board to ask for reading recommendations, start a discussion on a particular book, or post a book review. You are welcome to post about books that are: 1. Related to clinical psychotherapeutic interventions and/or research 2. Related to themes relevant to psychotherapy (i.e. social justice and cultural competence) 3. Helpful to your own personal and professional growth regarding issues of self-care or countertransference 4. Meaningful reading recommendations for clients All psychotherapists - social workers, MFT's, counselors, psychologists, and even students - are encouraged to join this community :) Please spread the word...let's get reading!

[close] Radical Reading is a new GR bookclub group dedicated to nonfiction books on various topics from a progressive, liberating, anti-racist, feminist and queer perspective. We have buddy reads and an active discussion board, where we talk about the books we read, exchange ideas or just have fun. Our goal is to engage in lively, productive and respectful conversations to expand our horizon and become an advocate/activist for positive societal change. The range of nonfiction books we read and discuss is wide, covering genres such as history, economy, art, sociology or politics. Our group is still new and thus a work in progress, however we gladly welcome new members! Please read the guidelines for a membership request. Guidelines for requesting membership 1) Prospective members must have an active public profile; a request from an inactive and non-public profile is rejected 2) We have mandatory questions you must answer when you apply 3) Authors are welcome; however self-promotion is not allowed 4) We may reject an application if we feel that the person is not joining in good faith, e.g. just here to provoke, troll or spread hateful content; or for the reasons stated under 1) and 2)
