Straight talk about psychotherapy!

This is the only book I have ever read that explains what occurs in psychotherapy. It is exceptionally clear, it is written in plain English, it is realistic (talks about benefits and limitations of therapy), and it is compassionate. The book also helps potential therapy clients pick the right therapist and become more well informed about which therapies work best for which types of problems.
