I like how well-researched this book is. I have never delved into the world of psychotherapy, but this is a new one and It creates an awareness that I believe everyone needs.

From a sampling, this seems like an interest self-help book focusing on the study or practice of Psychotherapy taken from the author's own experiences with clients. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

Thank you for your informative review. I'm glad that the book is so helpful for those in the field and that you liked it as well. Though one of my degrees is in social work, I never got into psychotherapy, so I will pass on it. I hope it can be helpful to many others though.

While your review is admirable, I would have loved you to hint on some of the methods the author employs on patients. That way, a reader is able to gauge whether the book suits them or not. That said, I loved the insights!

I truly appreciate when an author does their research. Having a background in the subject is vital when writing a non-fiction book on such a heavy topic as psychotherapy, but the author's openness to learning more on the subject and on how to better connect with clients really goes the extra mile.

A useful resource for psychotherapists and psychotherapy students, which will help them handle clients better. I won't have any use of this book but this seems useful. Congrats on BOTD!

For people getting therapy, it would be nice to understand things from the other perspective. It may help them to trust the therapist more. Congratulations on book of the day.

A good book for anyone who wish to start a career in psychotherapy. This book can influence them a lot. Moreover, those who have decided not to meet a psychotherapist could also read this book. As this book deals with the different processes a psychotherapist does, people would be more comfortable to meet them.

In this book, the author broadly discusses psychotherapy. He discusses different steps of being a good psychotherapist, such as preparations before meeting clients, client meetings, building client relationships, and documentation,. It is a must read to find out more about achieving a promising career in psychotherapy.
The review is superb.
