What to expect
The culmination of master psychiatrist Dr. Irvin D. Yalom's more than thirty-five years in clinical practice, The Gift of Therapy is a remarkable and essential guidebook that illustrates through real case studies how patients and therapists alike can get the most out of therapy.
The bestselling author of Love's Executioner shares his uniquely fresh approach and the valuable insights he has gained-presented as eighty-five personal and provocative 'tips for beginner therapists', including:
*Let the patient matter to you
*Acknowledge your errors
*Create a new therapy for each patient
*Do home visits
*(Almost) never make decisions for the patient
*Freud was not always wrong
A book aimed at enriching the therapeutic process for a new generation of patients and counsellors, Yalom's Gift of Therapy is an entertaining, informative, and insightful read for anyone with an interest in the subject.
Critics Review
I would recommend this book to anyone, but especially to those open to learning with the heart as well as the head
In 85 short chapters, [Yalom] presents little pearls of ideas shaped from thirty-five years in practice … Yalom’s latest is essential
[Yalom’s] wise ideas are perfectly accessible
Very much forward looking – a call to arms for the couch … I’m struck by the man’s unerring sense of humanity … [Yalom is] a wizard, for whom no curtain is left drawn
An absorbing guide
Certainly helpful to therapists and patients, may also help any thoughtful person seeking to improve relationships with others and self-understanding
