What is your therapist REALLY thinking? That's the question one patient and her psychotherapist answer in their remarkably honest fly-on-the-wall book

What actually goes on between a therapist and his or her client? Anna Wickins was a highly trained consultant engineer, happily married with three ­children, yet still haunted by a traumatic event that happened when she was a student at Bristol University 20 years ago. The authors of this insightful book, Anna Wickins and Paddy Magrane, are now firm friends When she can't bear to talk, Wickins mutely hands Magrane what she has written down. Because the ­culmination of Wickins's therapy over two years is the journey she makes with Magrane, back to Bristol to look at the places where both rapes happened. This sort of intervention seems highly unusual and Magrane must first discuss it with the control therapist that all practitioners must have, in order to allow them to decompress.
