So many profound books have been written that help us understand trauma, loss, conflict, shame, and other issues that often compromise quality of life and mental health, but finding those books can be almost by chance, and with whom can you discuss them? In this “psychotherapy book club” we read books purposely curated for their insights, and in particular, tools for addressing the challenges so many of us face. The facilitated group is both enjoyable and therapeutic—a safe place to open up with others experiencing similar issues in the context of high quality fiction and non-fiction literature.
