- Summary
- Those who spend most of their time dealing with other people's stress are most vulnerable to stress themselves. This text highlights the pressures experienced by psychotherapists and examines how the effects vary according to the problems they treat, the settings in which they work, and their professional and personal development. Written by a team of experienced practitioners, this text should prove important reading for all those in psychotherapy training and practice.
