The Making of a Therapist: A Practical Guide for the Inner Journey by Louis Cozolino

4.0

Cozolino’s book gives readers an in-depth look inside the mind of a Harvard trained psychologist with over 20 years of therapy experience. Dr. Cozolino offers this [guide] for beginning therapists, offering advice on important skills such as communication, case conceptualization, treatments plans, and building the therapeutic relationship. He also touches down on topics such as shuttling, centering, countertransference, and self-care. As a student and beginning therapist, I found this book to be both informative and reassuring. I would recommend this book to every student hoping to become a mental health professional.
