Psychotherapy is a new language spoken by modern society. It has its own code, rituals, and internal hierarchy.

"On the Edge of Personality" is a new typology by Anna Efimkina. Through examples from real sessions and characters from literature and cinema, the author will demonstrate the multifaceted nature of human personality. Drawing from the classics in the spirit of Nancy McWilliams, the author offers a systematic approach to understanding 21 psychological types: recognizable traits, strengths and weaknesses, and how therapists should work. Supervisor, Collector, Psychosomatic, Expert… You will recognize them in colleagues, loved ones, and in the reflection in the mirror.
