The Psychotherapist's Own Psychotherapy: Patient and Clinician Perspectives lifts a curtain that has long shrouded the intimate alliances between therapists and those of their patients who share the same profession. In this unique volume, distinguished contributors explore the multi-faceted nature of the psychotherapy of psychotherapists from "both sides of the couch." The first-person narratives, clinical wisdom, and research findings gathered together in this book offer guidance about providing effective treatments to therapist patients.

Overseeing some 300 contributors, Hersen (psychology, Pacific Univ.) and Sledge (psychiatry, Yale Univ.) collected about 160 articles, running in length from two to 20 pages.
