I have no doubt that students, novices, and professionals in the helping occupations will find this to be a major contribution to their professionalism and well-being."" -- Moshe Israelashvili, PhD, Tel Aviv University, Israel ""I welcome this book, as a psychotherapist, with my whole heart. The authors have left no stone unturned in identifying the pitfalls which can lead to burnout in practitioners in the business of ""other care."" -- Ursula Somerville, MEAP, MIAHIP, European Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor based in Ireland ""Skovholt and Trotter-Mathison have offered well written observations of profound truth, informed largely by the superlative body of research on counselor development by Skovholt and colleagues. A stimulating and validating read for practitioners across the professional lifespan."" -- Camille DeBell, PhD, Associate Professor of Counseling, Regis University ""The second edition of The Resilient Practitioner is packed with insight and practical tools for mental health professionals. This is a great book for teaching and training, and for periodic self-assessment for the mature professional."" -- Arnold Spokane, PhD, ABPP, Professor of Counseling Psychology, Lehigh University
