The Gift of Therapy: An Open Letter to a New Generation of Therapists and Their Patients

There are a lot of points in this book that really resonate with what I have felt has helped me as a patient to have a great experience in therapy. It is well written, with fantastically succinct chapters that are grouped by themes and treatment times.
That being said, I don't think I would have finished this book if not for it having been assigned to me for schoolwork. Yalom's examples are reminiscent of those you would find in a self-help workbook, and his desire to guide therapists with an oddly end-all and preachy tone irks me.
Good book, perhaps better for someone who is much more interested in the traditional model of psychotherapy.
