This book is an opportunity to look behind the scenes of the work of a psychotherapist. Olga Berg, psychologist and supervisor, author of the best-selling books "Catch the Day" and "Journey to the Center of Yourself," tells in detail five stories of people who asked for help. Childhood injuries, adultery, financial difficulties, problems with trust and relationships - all this becomes the object of close analysis of a professional. The author tells what is behind certain words of the client, reveals the pathological mechanisms that made a person unhappy, highlights ways to solve the problem. The book will be useful to both practicing psychologists and their clients. She explains: - where do we get self-neglect, shame and suppressed emotions; - why does a subconscious desire arise to be due to someone and we find ourselves in a financial hole; - is it possible to forgive and trust a person again after treason; - what does the corrosive feeling of envy say and why it should not be ignored; - what is better to pay attention to a specialist, what tasks in therapy need to be set and how to work with it.
