586 Occupational Health Psychology


Finally, Edgar Schien (Quick & Gavin, 2000) and Peter
Frost (Frost & Robinson, 1999) are among those concerned
with addressing the toxins and emotional pain all too often
endemic to organizational life. While healthy organizational
systems may have natural homeopathic agents and immune
systems that metabolize these psychological toxins and emo-
tional pain, OHP can take the lead in crafting mechanisms
and systems to help manage these unhealthy energies that
inevitably, yet unintentionally, emerge in many work organi-
zations. Schein uses the term organizational therapy,and we
need to evolve language and mechanisms for making this
process more concrete and complimentary to the other lead-
ing edges of occupational health psychology.
