Therapist Stories of Inspiration, Passion, and Renewal cover

Why do you practice psychotherapy? In this exciting volume, some of the field’s leading therapists tell true stories which evoke the pleasures, joys, and satisfactions that inspire passion for therapeutic work. Rather than focusing on the stresses and strains of being a clinician, these dramatic, poignant, wise, sometimes humorous and always soulful stories will help you gain (or regain) hope and excitement, and ultimately inspire a recommitment to a profession that, at its heart and soul, is about helping people.

"This book made me laugh, cry, and feel inspired. In short, it is packed with spiritual, emotional, and human truths, and it taught me new perspectives. Even though the stories are difficult to arrange into a cohesive whole with so many voices of different writers, Hoyt has succeeded. I not only recommend this book but I feel like a missionary to get others to appreciate its timeless message." –John D. Lentz D. Min., Shepherdsville, KY

Miller, Ph.D., Director of the International Center for Excellence, co-author of The Heroic Client and co-editor of The Heart and Soul of Change
