Apt Title

I found Who is Sylvia a great read: absorbing and provocative. You don't have to be a shrink to enjoy it and profit from it.

Sylvia Rocks!

A refreshing approach to therapy. Particularly D. Peven's direct and sometimes humorous approach to mending the psyche. No punches pulled, no magic wands, just attentive understanding and creative methods all wrapped inside the continuous and uncontrollable ebb & flow of life.

provocative sensitive

interesting personal and down to earth. Book reveals insights into everyone's hidden side. Gives everyone something to identify with without feeling guilty about our own craziness.

You will not be able to put this book down!

Beautifully written, concise, easy to understand, and just plain fascinating! I loved this book! It helped me to understand psychotherapy, different theories, who Adler was -- and the cases presented! Like I said I could not put this book down. More "human" than Oliver Sacks' work, it really is a page turner. You will not be disappoointed. I especially recommend this book to therapists -- you will learn how to do your job!
