ABSTRACT
Now that this book is getting closer to publication, I am anticipating what it will be like when people whom I know and people I do not know, as well as some current and former patients, read my very personal self-disclosures. I feel vulnerable but also excited. Will they join in celebrating the wounded healer psychotherapist? Writing this material for publication requires a huge leap of faith. The psychotherapists who contributed chapters have taken that leap too. Their courage in doing so has helped me so much. I know I am not alone.
