The Gift of Therapy is the new book from the bestselling author of Love's Executioner . The culmination of master psychiatrist Dr Irvin Yalom's forty-five years' work as a therapist, this book illustrates through real case studies how patients and therapists alike can get the most out of therapy. Presented as eighty-five 'tips' for 'beginner therapists', Yalom shares his own fresh approach and the insights he has gained while treating his patients. Personal, and sometimes provocative, Yalom includes some unorthodox suggestions: Let the patient matter to you Acknowledge your errors Create a new therapy for each patient Three kinds of therapist self-disclosure Revealing the therapist's personal life: use caution Full interpretation of a dream? Forget it! Freud was not always wrong This is an entertaining, informative and insightful read for both beginner (and experienced) therapists, patients, students and everyone with an interest in the subject.
