self-help

Listening to an author who implies that a co-dependent relationship with a healer is not only good but necessary is a sad commentary on her lack of clinical traning! She tends to assume not only responsibility for the women she "heals" but the original development of a model that has been found in other previously written literature and that in itself is a commentary on her own unhealed woundedness. While the book outlines issues that women wounded in life have to deal with, and the model of change is useful, her assumptions on the relationship to the 'wounded healer' ignore the solid clinical practice of objectivity that leads to real integrated wholeness.
