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

God, I love this book. It's 3 a.m. and I have 5 patients tomorrow, so I need to sleep instead of write right now. But I really really love this book. So much of it resonates with my beliefs about what therapy should be, which too often is not what we're taught or how many of us behave. In many ways reading it was an experience of validation for the way I work and my complex feelings about all of it. I'm usually a library reader, but I'm glad I bought this one, because I'll be reading it again and again.

Lilo I just looked at your profile, and wow! You've lived some life! I would love to read your book if it's published and I really hope you get that chance.

Thank you for your interest in my book. I had finished writing it in 2012, when my DIY husband talked me into self-publishing, promising to take care of all the technical/digital stuff. Unfortunately, we have been hopping from one calamity into another (wildfire, flooding, insurance issues, manuscript devastated by a fail-function of Word, severe health problems, and, and, and, and, and, ... ... ... --you name it we have had it). So my early-childhood memoir (as well as another [short] memoir and a novella) remains unpublished. I don't even dare take another guess when it will finally hit the market. (Adding photographs with captions to the digital version is presently the main problem.)
