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

4.0

I read this book as part of my professional development plan during my practicum year to become a therapist. There are a lot of gems, and it's clear from Cozolino's body of work that he cares deeply about therapy. I see value in sitting with and integrating a lot of the content from this book; I also recognize that there are many moments when it didn't resonate with me on a visceral level, so there is some je ne sais quoi I was craving and didn't find.

The line I imprinted and will carry forward "In psychotherapy, understanding is the booby prize."
