Our readingWhat is a korrent?

When institutions can only offer compromised care they end up calling it best practice, and the patients who do not get better conclude that they themselves are beyond help.

What Jonathan Shedler actually said

  1. Jonathan Shedler Clinical psychologist and clinical professor of psychiatry at UCSF
    When patients don't get the help they need, they don't come away thinking, I didn't get good treatment. They come away thinking, I am too broken to be helped. They leave more hopeless and demoralized than when they came. That is harm.
