Have you ever wondered about the internal workings of a therapist's mind? In this book, Julia, a gestalt therapist for many years, shares with you some of her own deeply personal, inner-processing work.

As you follow her internal struggle to find a way to navigate various impasses of her life, you will find her to be intelligent, courageous, occasionally humorous, and above all, steadfastly true to herself and her growing relationship with herself.

The short stories that make up this book are mainly allegorical. They are sometimes raw, sometimes beautiful, always deeply authentic, and will call out in you a desire to process your own life a little deeper.

As in all good therapists' offices, it might be an idea to keep a glass of water and a box of tissues handy when you read.
