The author, Professor Geoffrey Kotler of the University of California, has over 30 years of experience in psychotherapy. He possesses a rich, authentic sense of his clinical practice and has also visited and surveyed the conditions of his peers in the field. He is not only a skilled psychotherapist but also an author of many important works in the field of psychotherapy. In this book, he vividly portrays the spiritual realm of therapists, allowing readers to see the working conditions and inner journey of psychotherapists, and witness the grand scenes of soul collisions: waiting in silence, remaining calm amidst insults, standing firm in difficulties, enduring the pain of limitations and suppression, professional burnout, and sleepless nights.
On the therapeutic journey of the heart, just as the ocean embraces all rivers, psychotherapists embrace the resentment, sorrow, anger, and even despair of those who have been wounded in spirit. With their ability to listen, tolerate, understand, and empathize, they dedicate their sincere and kind hearts to guiding those who are lost out of their pitfalls and out of the depths.
