Review

"FROM THE FILES OF A SEX THERAPIST is not only a book of sexual secrets which will satisfy the voyeur and the curious, it is a fascinating book, written in a comfortable, easy to read style with information and personal stories which will inspire and motivate the reader to greater sexual pleasures. Especially interesting and unique is an inside look into the mind and heart of Dr. Altman as she helps her clients towards emotional health and sexual success. It is a must-read for anyone seeking sexual enhancement or for the therapist studying sex therapy! It knocked my socks off. I learned a lot, I cried a lot and I laughed a lot." (Dr. Albert Z. Friedman, Founder of Penthouse Forum Magazine; Visiting Professor; The Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality)

"A true picture of therapy and how it can help. Fascinating, exciting and quite a turn-on, such creative patients - wow! I learned a lot!" -- Jerry Gillies, Author of TANTRIC SEX

5.0 out of 5 stars It is much more than the title implies. It's an eye opener, November 3, 1998

This review is from: From the Files of a Sex Therap (Paperback)

This book has taught me to me less judgemental about others and mostly about myself. It has allowed me to become much more open both emotionally and sexually. Dr. Altman's kind and simple approach to needs and wants is so easy to understand that it becomes part of your own feeling and thinking. I especially liked being able to put myself in the office of a therapist and understand how it works. I feel as though I went through the best therapy possible, and I've succeeded to change positively in so many wonderful ways. I enjoyed and benefited from this book. TDM - Chicago, ILL.

5.0 out of 5 stars An exciting and entertaining easy read., November 5, 1999

This review is from: From the Files of a Sex Therap (Paperback)

The stories are riviting, each one has it's own lesson. Where are people like this? I want to meet them, all of them! Ms. Altman must have had quite a life. I envy her freedom of thought. I think emulating her would lead to a better sex life. Please, give us more stories!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great anecdotes for anyone interested in sexuality and love., July 30, 1998

This review is from: From the Files of a Sex Therap (Paperback)

Altman's book is a nitty gritty insider's view of what happens behind the closed sessions of a sex and realtionship therapist. Completely shocking, thoroughly stimulating and eduational as well! Read it twice!! Made by significant other read it as well!
