Irvin D. Yalom
About this listen
The collection of 10 absorbing tales by master psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom uncovers the mysteries, frustrations, pathos, and humor at the heart of the therapeutic encounter. In recounting his patients' dilemmas, Yalom not only gives us a rare and enthralling glimpse into their personal desires and motivations but also tells us his own story as he struggles to reconcile his all-too-human responses with his sensibility as a psychiatrist. Not since Freud has an author done so much to clarify what goes on between a psychotherapist and a patient.
The audio version of the book includes an exclusive interview with Dr. Yalom.

Powerful and immersive storytelling
This book consists of a number of powerful and immersive stories told eliquently. It's not a book to listen to while cooking, but rather one to truly pay full attention to. Once you do, you'll be transformed to the patients' world and then the therapist's. Furthermore, you'll hear insights to apply to your own life, either as a therapist, friend or human being living a complex life. It truly is a noteworthy book that might just provide priceless insight and reflection into your own life.

Great for a trainee counselling
As a trainee counsellor, I’m really enjoying Dr Yalom’s stories and they are a real insight if you are delving into the work done by psychologists and psychotherapists. The narrration isn’t as bad as some people on here suggest it is, although I do admit it is a little mechanical at times and there probably needs to be more of a short pause in between each chapter. Really enjoying it though, and it has more than met my expectations

very bad narrator
so far the worst Audible book I've listened to. The narrator was so monotonous and robotic couldn't tell the difference between characters and constantly losing the story line.
The book itself has amazing content though just misrepresented by the narrator.
