This is a collection of stories told by physicians, psychotherapists, and nurses, written in their own words, detailing the personal thoughts/feelings that have colored their work in the helping professions. Deeply personal, honest, and vulnerable, these professionals share the stories that have been untold until now. Ethical and legal concerns often quell the desire to tell these stories. But they are just too compelling, heartwarming, and at times, heartbreaking to leave untold. Have you ever wondered what your counselor was really thinking when you shared your story? Have you wondered if your healthcare provider has experienced something in his/her personal life that has influenced the way you are being treated or were treated? This book answers these questions. This collection of stories offers some insight into both the intellectual and emotional side of our work. You’ll see that just as we affect your lives, you in turn profoundly affect ours.
