Born and raised in New Paltz, NY, Larry Winters entered the United States Marine Corps after high school and served in Vietnam 1969-1970. Twenty-five years later, by then a licensed mental health counselor at Four Winds Hospital in Katonah, he returned to Vietnam with other health care professionals to study P.T.S.D. in the Vietnamese people and to make peace with his past. Larry is a widely published poet, men's group leader and group psychotherapist. This is his story.
This book is great for any therapists or aspiring therapists to understand their clients better. The truth is we will never understand what each other has been through, but the closest we can come is to hear their story. Larry went through so much, but even he learned this lesson in dealing with a fellow veteran. Great read, although tough to get through at times as you learn all of the things Larry went through.
