Why do you practice psychotherapy? It is mostly a business matter, or more to hear people 's stories and to help them? Whatever the reason, there is no doubt that therapy can be stressful, for both the client and the therapist. Mental-health professionals face more and more issues that can be limiting and sometimes stifling: managed care, heavy caseloads, diminished incomes, and narrowly defined methodologies. In this exciting volume are true stories, written by some of the field 's leading psychotherapists, which evoke the pleasures, joys, and satisfactions that inspire passion for therapeutic work. Rather than focusing on the stress and strains of running a practice, these dramatic, poignant, sometimes humorous and always soulful stories will help you gain (or regain) joy, hope, excitement, and ultimately inspire a recommitment to a profession that, at its heart and soul, is about helping people.

Industry Reviews

"This book made me laugh, cry, and feel inspired. In short, it is packed with spiritual, emotional, and human truths, and it taught me new perspectives. Even though the stories are difficult to arrange into a cohesive whole with so many voices of different writers, Hoyt has succeeded. I not only recommend this book but I feel like a missionary to get others to appreciate its timeless message." - John D. Lentz D. Min., Shepherdsville, KY

"Therapist Stories of Inspiration, Passion and Renewal: What's Love Got to Do with It? is a treasure trove of wisdom and experience. Each chapter is a gem, written by some of the century's leading clinicians. Treat yourself. You and your clients will be grateful." - Scott D. Miller, Ph.D., Director of the International Center for Excellence, co-author of The Heroic Client and co-editor of The Heart and Soul of Change

"A wonderful book filled with charm, wisdom, and inspiration." - Bill O'Hanlon, author of The Change Your Life Book and Do One Thing Different and featured guest on Oprah
