Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "They leave out a lot of important stuff in Therapy School," Blackstone begins, "like what to do when you're leading group & your skirt falls down." And from there it gets funny.... "The best thing I've read!" (Mary McClure Goulding, MSW, Co-developer of REDECISION THERAPY) "Insightful-delightful!" (Denton Roberts, M.Div., author of ABLE & EQUAL) "This book is a treasure!" (Joan Minninger, Ph.D., author of TOTAL RECALL) "Peg Blackstone has to be the funniest therapist ever to stroke a psyche!" (Patrick McManus, author of A FINE & PLEASANT MISERY). THINGS THEY NEVER TOLD ME IN THERAPY SCHOOL offers a unique, heartwarming look at real psychotherapy. Numerous clinical & personal anecdotes illustrate Blackstone's joy in her work & continuing high regard for clients' strength & resiliency. Her humorous, sensible approach challenges popular myths about therapy & human nature. In this work, Blackstone does for psychotherapy what James Herriott did for veterinary practice in ALL CREATURES GREAT & SMALL. She also prompts readers to examine their fundamental assumptions about human nature. Are people basically "good"? Can they really change in significant ways? Is almost everyone "addicted" or otherwise afflicted without knowing it? Current, entertaining & thought provoking reading.
