As professional healers & helpers, we must reconcile a paradox central to our work: that being selfish—putting time and effort into our own well-being—makes us much more effective at helping our clients. We have to learn how to better support one another professionally, and reciprocally. We must, most of all, learn how to value ourselves in the same judgment-free way we value those we serve.

Title: So incredibly helpful!
Review: Jim did a wonderful job in writing this very necessary book! I loved his transparency in referencing himself as a wounded healer. It is so helpful to gain better understanding of self and your healing journey (including struggles, victories, navigating the world) when you know that you are not alone. Jim presents the information in such a wonderful way to make the reader feel validated. He is spot on about how trauma experiences impact all aspects of our well-being and the importance of taking care of ourselves in order to be the very best providers of care that we can be to others. He hits a home run with the concept that wounded healers can be highly effective in helping others provided that they do engage in self-care to ensure being the healthiest versions of ourselves that we can be. I would say this book is incredibly helpful for not only those who provide therapy to others, but also to anyone who has a trauma history in general. It really digs deep into what is going on within our thoughts, feelings, emotions, how we relate to the world, etc. I would highly recommend this one!!

Title: A 'must-read' for mental health workers.
Review: Speaking as a professional in the field of mental health, the author's honest, direct, often irreverent yet always heart-felt style speaks to the very essence of the trials aand tribulations being a "wounded healer" but also gives some insightful takes on how to effect your own healing through this collection of short essays. The author's description of his own journey of growth and healing as a healer to others is simultaneously inspiring and relatable. In each section he expands upon his simple message of gentleness and accountability to self in order to effect positive growth and healing in one's self as a healer that has a "ripple effect" to our clients and all others. The writing promots/meditations are simple yet effective. If you work in the field of mental health, I highly, HIGHLY recommend this book.

Title: Best book I’ve read in a long time
Review: I discovered Jim on FB was intrigued by his straightforward thoughts and as he says in his experience. His book does not disappoint well written and should be a required read for all therapists newly practicing or ever evolving seasoned folks. Much to be learned and reminded of in this easy to read and relate to book. Just loved the book bless you for being so open and sharing your life and experience!!
