Where the Client Is

Building a better private practice

Couch Fiction

You might like this (I did):  Couch Fiction, a book-length therapy comic by British psychotherapist, Philipa Perry.  From the jacket:

Based on a case study of Pat (our sandal-wearing, cat-loving psychotherapist) and her new client, James (an ambitious barrister with a potentially harmful habit he can’t stop), this graphic novel follows the anxieties, frustrations, mind-wanderings and break-throughs of each, through a year of therapy sessions together.

Plenty of opportunity to recognize your good-and-bad therapist self, and maybe even freshen up on some theory (via commentary at the bottom of each page).   More b.g.:  A review here…and an author interview here.  Enjoy.
