Бяхме искрено учудени и много зарадвани, когато на адреса на издателството започнаха да пристигат изписани и изрисувани страници от цялата страна, където разказвате измислени от вас истории за Малката Божана .

Целта на създаването на такава група е да се подобри емоционалното състояние на децата и юношите, диагностицирани с бронхиална астма, чрез целенасочен групов процес, по време на които се редуцира разликата между реалност и субективни очаквания като вътрешна предпоставка за постигане на рехабилитация и ресоциализация. Изхождайки от обобщения собствен опит при създаването на такава група през 2009, 2010 и 2011 г., трябва да призная, че трудностите в началото произтичат от факта, че в ... |
