Since its original publication over twenty-five years ago, On Being a Therapist has inspired generations of mental health professionals to explore the mostprivate and sacred aspects of their work to help others.

This is a major update, including 4 new chapters, which include an increased focus on the therapist's role and responsiblity to promote issues of social justice and human rights, aswell as practical material on the therapist's journey, dealing with failures,how clients can change thier therapists, and forbidden subjects that are rarely admitted, much less openly discussed.Jeffrey Kottler has written over three dozen books, many of them for Jossey-Bass, including The Compleat Therapist, Beyond Blame and most recently, The Mummy at the Dining Room Table. He also co-authored The Last Victim (Warners) which was on the NY Times Best Seller List for six weeks. Kottler is recognized as one of the best authors and teachers in the field.
