Pamela Church's book a Short Manual on the Big Topics in Psychotherapy is very true to it's title. She manages to cover some of the biggest topics in the field such as neuroscience, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and relational frame work in clear language that is at once accessible and personal. This book will be useful to a variety of readers- from patients who want an overview of what to expect in good therapy, to newer therapists who are wanting to be more wholistic, to seasoned therapists who are looking for support to integrate and articulate what they do in their consulting room. Ken Goldberg, MD Preventive Medicine Specialist and International Core Energetics Trainer Our own body experience is one of the primary tools that a psychotherapist uses to help their clients. This book is about the whole person, not only the brain. It describes in depth how the mind, body, and heart connection can help to heal in therapy. Author Pamela Church has created a program called Harmonize Now, which includes tools that clients and therapists can use to self-regulate. These exercises use touch to regulate the body. They can improve gut health, release stress, depression, and anxiety and stimulate parts of the brain to function more or less. Toward the end of the book, readers are given illustrations of several of the exercises, which are simple yet mindful. Kristi Elizabeth, San Francisco Review of Books
