Abstract
The psychotherapeutic possibilities were explored in an experimental community mental health center covering a rural, secluded district in Greece. Cultural difficulties and visualization of the therapist as a protective figure produced some initial resistances, while somatization was common. Various psychotherapeutic approaches, including a mobile unit’s intervention in the villages, were organized to cover the countryside’s needs.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
