Ruby’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for The Gift of Therapy: An Open Letter to a New Generation of Therapists and Their Patients

The Gift of Therapy: An Open Letter to a New Generation of Therapists and Their Patients by Irvin D. Yalom

Therapy is enhanced if the therapist enters accurately into the patient’s world. Patients profit enormously simply from the experience of being fully seen and fully understood.
