Engaging, insightful and moving
The story is beautifully told and sheds light on the importance of the need for being seen and heard and reducing the stigma of those living with mental health issues

A thoughtful piece
I found this book instilled into me the perfect amounts of both fear and hope heading into my own clinical training. Tanya’s pensive reflection of the cases, and her own abilities and worries, make for a great and thought provoking listen.

Inspirational
A funny light hearted description of the journey to becoming a Clinical Psychologist. I loved the honesty of this book. I found the willingness of Dr Byron to share her vulnerabilities, to outline her successes and to tell us all about her mistakes inspiring.
