'Official Review: Gateways to Psychotherapy' by Michael Hegarty is useful and informative. It brings to the knowledge of readers the important parts of the book. The point that the author discusses different steps of being a good psychotherapist such as preparations before meeting clients, client meetings, building client relationships, and documentation is worth mentioning in the review. Also, the point that the author is very open to using technology to attain clients and emphasizes other psychotherapists to achieve good working websites where they can help clients online, as mentioned in the review, is remarkable for readers. It was great to learn that the author did extensive research to convey his messages!

I like reading books that explore different approaches to psychological therapy. They always help with my understanding of my mental faculties and keep an open mind when I see another person struggling. Excellent review!

Psychotherapy is an interesting subject. From this review I gather that the best audience for this type of book would be students and new therapists. As for me, if I wanted or needed psychotherapy, I wouldn't read a book about it; I would go speak to a professional. Nice review.

I would like to read this book The reviewer cites the topics discussed, open-minded discussion and the format of the book as reasons that it is a good read. Psychotherapy is not a profession that I know much about. I am glad to know that others are helped by it. Thanks for your review.

I love how you gave your feedback on this book. My mother's a psychologist, and I've long held a passing interest in psychotherapy, so the contents of this slightly intrigue me. Congrats on making BOTD.

Psychotherapy is one of the trickiest therapy to perform. I know it first-hand. A book that will help in that will definitely be useful. Thanks for the review!

This book sounds like a great resource for therapists. It can assist them to give the best services to their clients. The author seems to be very familiar with the subject matter.
Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen
