Book Description
Toni Webster had a vision of what life in her thirties was going to be, but life as she knows it-homeless, jobless, and at odds with her best friend-is nowhere near what she'd hoped. To make matters worse, she has been called back to Lake Harbor, WI where she will be forced to confront past actions and lies. Reluctantly, Toni returns with a plan to leave again as soon as possible. What she doesn't expect is the challenge Gran leaves for Toni in her will. Can a shoebox of letters change her life? It seems unlikely, but Toni has literally nothing left to lose, and everything to gain, if she can find the courage to meet this challenge head-on. Maybe this will be just what she needs to finally set her life back on track. Here's to hoping!

Lying On The Couch
Author: Irvin D. Yalom
Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 0465062970
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 379
Book Description
From the bestselling author of Love's Executioner and When Nietzsche Wept comes a provocative exploration of the unusual relationships three therapists form with their patients. Seymour is a therapist of the old school who blurs the boundary of sexual propriety with one of his clients. Marshal, who is haunted by his own obsessive-compulsive behaviors, is troubled by the role money plays in his dealings with his patients. Finally, there is Ernest Lash. Driven by his sincere desire to help and his faith in psychoanalysis, he invents a radically new approach to therapy -- a totally open and honest relationship with a patient that threatens to have devastating results. Exposing the many lies that are told on and off the psychoanalyst's couch, Lying on the Couch gives readers a tantalizing, almost illicit, glimpse at what their therapists might really be thinking during their sessions. Fascinating, engrossing and relentlessly intelligent, it ultimately moves readers with a denouement of surprising humanity and redemptive faith.

Tales from the Couch
Author: Bob Wendorf
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1631440306
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Tales from the Couch is collection of actual case studies and a primer on psychopathology, as well as a captivating reflection on the human condition. Drawn from Dr. Bob Wendorf’s thirty-six-year career years as a clinical psychologist, the book examines the lives of some of his most troubled patients, in a project that aims to both educate and fascinate the reader. Clinical syndromes are described and dramatized by real-life case examples (altered only as necessary to protect patient confidentiality). Each of the sixteen chapters focuses on a particular psychiatric diagnosis, including Multiple Personality Disorder, Asperger’s, and ADD. The clinical picture and symptoms are described and explained, then brought to life by case examples taken from the author’s practice. Dr. Wendorf presents the cases as a series of narratives—some dramatic, some humorous, most quite poignant. Along the way, the author offers his own reactions to the people and events described here and application to the general human condition as well. Tales from the Couch offers compelling stories of extraordinary people, clinical conditions, and events—both in and out of the therapy hour—while providing insights into the nature of human beings, mental illness, and the psychotherapeutic enterprise.
