This book helped me so much earlier on in my therapeutic journey with my current therapist. I was dazed and confused over the process and Ms. Lott captures perfectly what goes on "in session"...

Honestly, I think I got stalled on this at the end of last year because it was hitting too close to home. But I do still really, really want to read it.

absolutely fascinating look at the relationship between women and their therapists, and the difference between having a male therapist and a female one. talks candidly about how often sexual boundaries are crossed, and has some rather shocking statistics for someone who wants to be in this field. i should read it again, since i forget most of the case studies, but a lovely read that you can pick up at any point and simply enjoy. written very accesibly and smartly, as well.

I have been looking for a book like this for years. If you are a woman who is engaged in therapy (or has been, or is considering being) this is a great read! It has so much good information on what may make or break the therapeutic relationship, one that I find to be extremely difficult to define. I will keep this book in my reference library. The book is out of print, and has to be purchased on the second-hand market.
