The Gift of Therapy: An Open Letter to a New Generation of Therapists and Their Patients
by Nicola Ferguson, Irvin D. Yalom
Handy insight, but what I learned could easily be summarised by a short list of bullet points. I did like his encouragement of a person-centered approach - that your role as a therapist is not to give client's the answers to their problems (which you won't have anyway) but to give them the space and support to figure it out.
Parts I disliked included the, bloody, insane, amount, of, commas, and how much Irvin loves himself - he somehow manages to turn most 'tips' into something that relates to himself, which I understand to a certain degree but it's a bit overboard imo and I would not like to have him as my therapist so i'm taking these tips with a massive heaping of salt.
