Talk to Me: Lessons from Patients and Their Therapist

By Bianca Denny

Sharing the extraordinary stories of ten everyday people engaging in psychotherapy, this book takes the listener into the room, showing the realities of being in therapy and providing insight into the perspectives of both the patient and the clinician.

Through these cases from her own practice, author and psychotherapist Bianca Denny dissects, unravels, and reconstructs experiences of grief, denial, jealousy, shame, desire, and letting go. A terminally ill woman desperate to reconcile with her estranged family. A new mother on the precipice of admission to a psychiatric unit. A delusional man, intent on harming his wife. A bachelor who self-sabotages his last chance of happiness. An adult daughter struggling to understand the relationship with her mother, in the wake of her parents' divorce. A person for whom a diagnosis of ADHD raises more questions than it answers. Denny shares her personal and professional insight through reactions of vulnerability, sadness, compassion, and frustration. Listeners are invited into the minds of patients as well as the internal workings of a therapist's mind.

Exploring the complexity of the patient and therapist relationship, and what actually happens in therapy, this book is essential listening for qualifying and early career therapists.
