5.0 out of 5 stars Author offers a much needed correction for psychotherapy.
William Doherty hits the nail on the head in offering an alternative to the professional's approach concerning today's human problems. In the name of responsible psychotherapy, so many professionals have done a grave disservice to families and communities by eliminating responsibility to others in their guidance.
Published on August 16, 1999

3.0 out of 5 stars Good points, but he could make them more concisely
Perhaps it was because Doherty was mainly preaching to the choir, but I didn't find this book to offer any startling revelations. I had to read it for a seminar, and found myself skimming the later sections of the book. It was well written and easy to read. He just could have said what he had to say in fewer pages.

3.0 out of 5 stars looking for a meaningful read, April 22, 2010

This review is from: Soul Searching: Why Psychotherapy Must Promote Moral Responsibility (Paperback)
I am a therapist working with families in crisis. I had this book recommended to me by another therapist. However, I didn't find it to be as moving and meanigful a book as I had heard it would be. It reads a bit too wordy and self-rightous.
