The Good Enough Therapist is a guidebook-not an instruction manual-written for beginning intermediate and experienced clinicians. It encourages readers to explore accept and embrace their flaws and failings in a way that promotes effective treatment as well as personal growth. It focuses both on craft and process-craft related to the tools the strategies and the tactics of treatment and process related to the session-by-session struggle to implement these tools in ways that speak to and illuminate the experience of living and struggling as a human being. It does not endeavor to transmit a method but a sensibility a way of being with patients that results in a deeper recognition of the therapist’s and the patient’s vulnerability resilience imagination and integrity. |The Good Enough Therapist Futility Failure and Forgiveness in Treatment | Mental Health
