Destined to be a classic,
This review is from: Countertransference and the Treatment of Trauma (Hardcover)
I have spent my entire career writng and teaching about the therapeutic relationship, and this is one of the best books by far on the subject. Her thinking is bold and progressive, and she has done the work to support it. I highly recommend this book to any therapist in training, any practicing psychotherapist, or anyone interested in learning more about psychotherapy or other intimate relationships.
