Book Description
This book is a memoir of the author's professional life as a psychologist and psychotherapist. It shows his progression from a hard-nosed behaviour therapist with a strong commitment to science to a psychodynamic therapist with an interest in narrative. Along the way he shows the way the main schools of psychotherapy (behavioural, cognitive, psychodynamic) work, drawing on case material from his professional practice. He shows the mistakes he made and the lessons he eventually learned from his patients. His focus on clinical cases enables readers to see psychotherapy in operation and get drawn into the ups and downs of trying to help some fascinating and often tricky people who rarely conform to what is expected of them.The book is free of jargon and can be enjoyed without any prior knowledge of psychology or psychotherapy. It is designed to entertain and inform the general readership about the mysterious world of psychotherapy, what goes on behind the consulting room door. It will be of particular interest to the increasing number of people who encounter psychotherapy either through their own experience of seeking help or the experiences of family and friends or through reading of popular books such as those of Oliver James and Irving Yalom.It should also prove invaluable for those interested in training as a clinical psychologist, counsellor or psychotherapist.

Book Description
Lily is a 12 year old girl who hears the voice of the Hebrew Goddess. Shekhinah calls to her from her exile in the Labyrinth of Time, where the hot summer sun shines upon winding rows of golden wheat grain. Trapped there by all the evil in the world called klipot, in the form of black hairy creatures with sharp claws, Shekhinah waits for a heroine to set her free and return her to human consciousness. Based on Kabbalistic mythology and modern Witchcraft, Lily travels through other dimensions that correspond to the cycles of the earth and the four seasons, gathering wisdom and spirit guides along the way. In between her otherworldly travels, Lily deals with family issues that can only be resolved through understanding and acceptance. In the end, Lily stands on the bimah of her synagogue at her Bat Mitzvah and faces the congregation with courage and a brave heart.
