Therapists are struggling to adapt both to their profession's changing landscape (such as the advent of managed care and the burgeoning of new theories and treatment approaches) and to demands on their professional and personal success. This book explores many issues that are rarely addressed in formal educational experiences for example, organizational politics, the negative "side effects" of being a therapist, keeping up with cutting-edge innovations, sustaining a private practice, and planning for the future and offers concrete suggestions for adapting to the world outside graduate school. Personal, easygoing writing style, the hallmark of Kottler's previous bestselling books, makes this an engaging and provocative read.
The cultural and social conditions under which psychoanalysts work have changed radically in the last few years. Many standard textbooks on technique no longer speak to the currently embattled generation of therapists. Drs. Kottler and Hazler have mastered the discipline, and they convey it with freshness and an understanding of the special difficulties of these times.
A breath of fresh air.
