This book helped me develop more awareness, self-compassion, and recognition of skills. It helped me identify areas in which I can continue to grow, what is normal, and what are some potential barriers to being an effective counselor (and how to mitigate those issues). It was validating and gave me some great ideas for self-care and self-compassion, along with demarcating work time and personal time. Definitely not a one-size-fits-all and "cognitive reconstructions" might be easier said than done, but it was a great and gentle reminder of how to be myself outside of work in order to do my work well.
