Overview

"An Unvarnished Book (what's in it for you . . . ?) A Few Words From a ""Still Becoming Human"" Author Based on this book's title, I imagine, many professionals will pass on it. When I think about them doing this, I feel surprised by my near-total lack of concern. I've purposely chosen this title in hopes I'll pique the interests of people who value being human more than being professional. No coincidence, this includes me and my many colleagues, most of whom have spent whole lives helping people. Know I count among my colleagues warm-hearted grandmas and new mothers, many of whom function as the family diagnostician. If any of this fits you, then you are definitely in the right place-especially if you've wanted to call ""bullshit"" on the things many so-called professionals claim to know about you and those you love. I know I have. In truth, if you've made it this far, I'm quite sure you've felt this way many times. Please (mad author shouting to the heavens), how about some chicken soup for the soul, rather than more chicken shit for the mind. This said, I would not expect you to read much further without me giving you the five-cent tour. What will this book do for you? What's in it for your patients? This is what I'm about to tell you. Everyone Diagnoses-Some of Us Do It Professionally Let's begin with this book's main point-that almost everyone alive diagnoses. Sadly, despite the word ""manual"" in the titles of existing diagnostic manuals, as of today, we have had no manual to guide us. Until now. This book is a no-bullshit book about diagnosis."

Author Information

"Steven Paglierani is an author, educator, Emergence Psychotherapist, and film maker whose writings describe the world through the lens of the autism spectrum. As a licensed therapist, he teaches others-especially those who are outside the norm and find it hard to fit in-to stop imitating normal and to be themselves. He has authored the first blamelessly ""natural"" personality theory, a theory where everything derives from a single fractal pattern. He's also built and raced Shelby Mustangs, been a singer/song writer mentioned in Rolling Stone, and designed his best friend's home as a wedding gift. Maria Kirsch is a licensed psychotherapist (an LMHC) and a formal student of Emergence Psychotherapy for the last seven years. She is an Emergence Psychotherapy Practitioner (Level 4), an editor, and the previous owner of a yoga and meditation center. Earlier in life, she spent years traveling the world, where she studied language and culture in Spain and fund-raised to end sex trafficking and slavery of young children in South India. She is continually drawn to learn all she can about the nature of suffering, so she can help teach others to emerge from their own."
