The book includes 22 short essays on the most disastrous cases in the career of world-famous psychotherapists who deservedly enjoy a reputation as masters of their craft. Experts in the field of psychotherapy will not only talk about their own professional failures, which still prevent them from sleeping peacefully at night, but also reflect on what conclusions can be drawn from each situation and what lessons their colleagues can learn for themselves. Written in a fascinating way, lively and easy language, the book will be interesting not only for practicing psychotherapists, but also for the average reader.
