The Gift of Therapy

Good quality!

i chose this book firstly because i am a trainee therapist, a fan of Yalom's fiction and group dynamics work. it is a book that i dip in and out of, it gives me inspiration and reminds me to honour my own humanity as well as my clients.

Insightful, clear and written with humour and vunerability. Great read.Disliking having to write a certain number of words to get this review posted!

Refreshing read for therapists and those interested in the field of counseling. Too few books deal with "helping the helper" and this one does that! The author really demonstrates and explains how therapy brings such quality to the lives of others, as well as his/her own! Counselors and therapists will really come away feeling encouraged and with new insight!

This book is written in a way that you are able to relate, he uses real stories of his own to bring the book alive. I would highly recommend this book.

Yalom simplifies psychology in a way that it becomes accessible to everyone. With this book he gives clear, concise advice to therapists. This will remain on my bookshelf throughout my professional career in psych.

A seminal text full of insights into group process that should be mandatory reading for college students, for those in people professions. Acecessible language, well written.

this book really makes me think about why I am in this field and how to make the best of each situation

I ordered for my wife.On time delivery and good book.We are happy with delivery and quality of the book

Useful for therapists, coaches, facilitators and even educators. The author has 35 years of experience of working with patients.He covers many important topics. The language is easy and pleasant to read.

A collection of advice to therapists that I have found incredibly useful as someone receiving therapy, it's given me a great insight into how therapy should work and what I should expect from my therapist. I feel that information will help me get the most out of the time I pay $140 an hour for. Each piece of advice is only one or two pages long so it's easy to digest.

Livro excelente. Talvez o melhor que já li para no preparo para ser um bom terapeuta.

I love the openess of the author and the practical advices he gives. These are really reflecting my personal gut feeling about how therapy should be conducted and how the therapist-patient relationship works at best. I love the concrete examples and the humility of the writer.
