Alternatives to the Medical Model

I am an Asssistant Psychologist working in Addiction Services.Throughout my clincial experience i have been overwhelmed by the emphasis on psychopharmacological "Treatments".I am interested in being involved in any discussions about psychological/psychotherapeutic approaches to Mental Health problems.
