More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
In this collection of poetry, Marian Davies gives expression to the many thoughts and feelings she experienced during the final few years of the long period she spent undergoing psychodynamic therapy. As despair turns to hope, and denial to self-knowledge, Poems from My Therapy gives eloquent voice to the wide range of emotions the poet felt towards the end of her counselling. In using poetry to reflect on and further comprehend the new and sometimes uncomfortable understanding of herself and her past that her therapy brought about, Marian Davies creates searingly honest verse, full of passion, self-revelation and humanity.

Poems giving insight into the therapy journey
28 Nov 2006
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The poems chart the therapy journey and show the powerful feelings that come up about difficult abuse issues. The poems also give real insight into the experience of a person undergoing pyschodynamic therapy and could be of great value to therapists in gaining a clients/patients view of therapy. This book is a deeply moving read and gives hope that writing and therapy can heal.
