Psychology Site News!: GoodTherapy.org updates

TomK from GoodTherapy.org (profiled previously) contacted via comments to update me on some developments that have taken place over at GoodTherapy. Here is what Tom had to say:

Hi Gareth, It’s TomK from GoodTherapy.org customer support. I just wanted to let you know that we have many new features on GoodTherapy.org, including 4 new regular contributors with exciting new columns about counseling & psychotherapy:
Ethics in Psychotherapy by Susan Buckles, LCSW;
The Human Being of Therapy by Greg Madison, Ph.D.;
Integrating Psychotherapy & Spirituality by John Rhead, Ph.D.;
Collaboration and Nonpathology in Psychotherapy by Noah Rubinstein, LMFT
Another exciting development on GoodTherapy.org is the First GoodTherapy.org Winter Teleconference Series. This series will present FREE teleconferences to GoodTherapy.org me members. The first series includes presentations from Richard Schwartz, Ph.D. the developer of Internal Family Systems Psychotherapy; Cedar Barstow the developer of The Right Use of Power (which is an Attachment Based approach to Ethics); and Steven Hoskinson, MA a senior trainer with the Foundation for Human Development presenting on Somatic Experiencing.

There are many other exciting events happening at GoodTherapy.org and we invite therapists and non therapist alike to take part in our resources.

Thanks,
TomK

Non-Psychology Promotion!: onehitwonder.org - charity $1 at a time

A simple charitable concept. “What if everyone in the world gave you one dollar? Have you wondered what you’d do with it? We have, and we’d like to see how many people across the planet will give a dollar, and then we’ll give it away to the poorest communities in the world. Our aim is to gather 7.29 million dollars, one dollar at a time“. Visit onehitwonder.org to take part in this unique (why didn’t someone think of this before) concept. Participating is easy, you just donate your $1 via Paypal. I just donated by dollar which will either be going towards a) health services in Africa or b) the pocket of the intelligent scammer who set up the site. Given the partners involved, I think (and hope) this is the real deal.
