In the proposed article, we take issue related to psychotherapy of possibilities. It is a concept that originated on the basis of philosophical research; hence it is based on the philosophy of the possibilities of Nicola Abbagnano. In the theoretical part we present the issue of coexistence, while indicating an elementary function of being-with; this procedure allowed us to show the role and importance of being-with in psychotherapy of possibilities, whose main goal is being-therapist with the patient to work together to solve his problems. Being-with constitutes the human existence and at the same time shows in which "existential processes" the man has shaped up and what an impact have they had on the satisfaction of needs, and hence on the triple movement of transcendence, so: being-with-own self, with another and the-world. In the proposed solutions we have tried to indicate on what psychotherapy of opportunities is based and identify the source and cause of the perception of one own self, others and the world. The conclusion is somehow re-looking at the proposed topic from the perspective of summaries.

The article deals with the linguistic tools used to verbalize the writer’s stances in legal discourse. The author argues that the writer as a discourse category is prototypically organized. The article determines central and peripheral features of the category. The linguistic units possessing central features are considered to be prototypical markers, while those ones lacking central features are considered atypical. Among central and peripheral linguistic tools used to verbalize the writer’s discourse stances, the author distinguishes first-person singular and plural pronouns in subjective and objective cases, first-person singular and plural possessive pronouns, proper names, institutional role descriptors, indefinite personal, impersonal and subjectless passive constructions. These linguistic tools are used to represent the writer in legal discourse both explicitly and implicitly varying utterances from personal to impersonal.
