Summary "Psychotherapy can be likened to a route map - a useful aid to reaching a known destination via a number of alternative routes. This book explores one person's experience of three different therapeutic approaches. It offers a very personal and candid insight into the whole process of psychotherapy." "Over five years Bobbie Kerr sought help from various therapists before eventually consulting Phil Barker, who helped her to make sense of these experiences, leading her through the frustration of unsuccessful treatment to the relative calm of self-knowledge and acceptance. In this book we are allowed access to Bobbie's diary entries throughout her experience of therapy, to which Phil Barker has added his own commentary and analysis, providing insight into the process of psychotherapy, from both the patient's and the therapist's perspectives."--BOOK JACKET
