Editorial Review:
Lessons from the personal experience and reflections of a therapist.
Being a therapist requires an exploration of one's inner world and private thoughts as much as it does going to graduate school. In this book, an experienced therapist takes readers on a journey inside the hearts and minds of therapists to provide students and beginning therapists with a new way of thinking about doing psychotherapy.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - We are not infallible after all.....
As a newcomer to the practice of therapy I found this book inspirational. Louis has a way of being human, honest, funny and presenting most of the ups and downs that encompass the experience of the training psychologist. Some great tips for maintaining the space between you and your client as well....enjoy as the real work begins.

The Making of a Therapist: A Practical Guide for the Inner Journey
Easy to read, very helpful in providing guidance of the more important facts of psychotherapy. Both new and experienced therapists can benefit from this book.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Superb book. Superb writer. Superb therapist?
I'd bet he is.

First of all, this is an excellently written book. It must have been daunting to try to pull off turning the information he provided into such a imminently readable book. But the author hit it out of the park with his writing abilities, knowledge and expertise. I'll be referring to this book for years.

Cozolino leaves very few stones unturned for the beginning psychotherapist.

So, if you're looking for a primer on psychotherapy, ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Highly recommend this book!!! truly helpful and easy to understand
If you are a therapist or want to be a therapist this book puts all your fears, concerns and worries into perspective. It actually gave me the strength to feel good about my choice and believe in myself. It empowered me and took away my fears. It helped me realize that being wrong is expected and how to communicate and find patterns to help clients change. This book is easy to read, makes clear common sense and is a page turner right to the end.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - The real deal, very readable
This was the best "beginner" book I've read so far. It talks about what you actually feel like and go through when starting out (for the experienced therapist as well). The author gives examples of his own initial misconceptions and mistakes which are common. I especially liked the overall theme which is about the "internal" world being as important as "professional" knowledge.
