This book was created to help therapists and therapists-in-training   explore the myths and taboo topics that weaken their practice and cause   anxiety, discomfort, and confusion. Some of these topics include feeling   incompetent; making mistakes; getting caught off guard by fee   entanglements; becoming enraged at patients; managing illness;   understanding sexual arousal and impulses; praying with patients as part   of therapy; feeling ashamed; being fired; and not knowing what to do. The   book discusses the damaging myths that therapists seem to hold about   themselves that sustain the taboo topics. By offering questions for   self-assessment and a series of explorations that can be used to examine   taboo topics individually or in groups, the book provides resources for   recognizing the myths, challenging the taboos, and speaking honestly and   directly with patients and others about topics that have been off-limits.
