Abstract:

Volumes have been written speculating how therapy expands the lives of clients. Far less is understood about the impact of doing clinical work on the therapist's own life. In the process of the therapeutic journey, not only do clients contact buried grief, but therapists too, inevitably revisit their own buried darkness, offering them ongoing opportunities for growth and renewal.
