It is mostly a business matter, or more to hear people,s stories and to help them? Whatever the reason, there is no doubt that therapy can be stressful, for both the client and the therapist. Mental-health professionals face more and more issues that can be limiting and sometimes stifling: managed care, heavy caseloads, diminished incomes, and narrowly defined methodologies. In this exciting volume are true stories, written by some of the field,s leading psychotherapists, which evoke the pleasures, joys, and satisfactions that inspire passion for therapeutic work. Rather than focusing on the stress and strains of running a practice, these dramatic, poignant, sometimes humorous and always soulful stories will help you gain (or regain) joy, hope, excitement, and ultimately inspire a recommitment to a profession that, at its heart and soul, is about helping people.作者简介Michael F.
