• Most useful book on how to be a therapist I’ve read so far, and that’s saying something
• Reminded me of Notes on Directing by Hauser and Reich, but like, therapy instead of theatre obviously

I read this book for class and, actually, I enjoyed parts of it. Yalom sometimes comes off as a pompous therapist, but he also has some great suggestions for mental health professionals.
