Reply to ""The Gift of Therapy""

I was getting nothing from my first Counsellor and started to buy books to enable me to understand what therapy is all about, the role a C plays and my part in it, although I didn’t tell C that! I told her I found them useful and interesting and offered some to her to read but she declined and made it clear to me she wasn’t happy that I was buying books and at one point asked if I wanted to counsel myself or her! Of all the books bought and without a doubt Irvin D. Yalom’s books was a breath of fresh air, understandable and poignant. My new T mentioned that she read his books which felt good knowing she likes his way of work and although she doesn’t have the years behind her that he had I think she’s going down the same road which I am happy about.
