5.0 out of 5 stars For Practitioners, Students, and Curious Consumers, March 26, 2006
By 
This review is from: What Therapists Don't Talk about and Why: Understanding Taboos That Hurt Us and Our Clients (Paperback)
This is the MOST PRACTICAL book on boundaries and ethics I have read in any language. It is an ideal text for professional training programs in psychology or other mental health fields. But it is also something one could use to guide practicing clinicians and/or plan inservice training. Last but not least, for the consumer who is wondering what "the rules are," this is far easier to understand than an ethics code. Nothing available in the professional literature can match this contribution by three widely acknowledged leaders in the field who have provided a virtual cornucopia of useful guidance. They cover many vital things including some rarely discussed. It's worth many times its price. This is the first book I think which could actually be used as a text in a professional training program which is seeking to truly cover the realities of the practice that their students face in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank you, Dr. Pope, for courageously writing about taboos in therapy!, April 14, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: What Therapists Don't Talk about and Why: Understanding Taboos That Hurt Us and Our Clients (Paperback)
In graduate training, we are trained to follow ethical principles, but discussions are limited. Students and professors seem afraid to openly discuss the taboo topics, like therapist feelings of fear, anger, hatred, and sexual attraction. This book provides the context for open, respectful, and insightful discussions in graduate-level ethics courses. Thank you, Dr. Pope!
