Therapist Stories of Inspiration, Passion, and Renewal Reviews

"This book made me laugh, cry, and feel inspired. In short, it is packed with spiritual, emotional, and human truths, and it taught me new perspectives. Even though the stories are difficult to arrange into a cohesive whole with so many voices of different writers, Hoyt has succeeded. I not only recommend this book but I feel like a missionary to get others to appreciate its timeless message." John D. Lentz D. Min., Shepherdsville, KY
