<p>Through the eyes of two wise and experienced therapists, The Other Couch: Discovering Women’s Wisdom in Therapy explores the lives of 36 spirited women who struggle and overcome their challenges with courage, resilience, and commitment. The authors focus on the wisdom patients bring to their therapists as they introduce women diagnosed with bi-polar disorder, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety disorder, multiple personality disorder, chronic suicidal ideation, and substance abuse. Each chapter conveys an important life lesson about the human condition and touches on situations such as abusive relationships, cheating spouses, addicted children, the death of loved ones, transgender issues, and more. Patricia Martin and Helene Houston understand that each of us has an intense craving to be understood by others. These stories are meant to inspire because they bring new life, breath, and spirit into the world. The Other Couch was written as a tribute, and a gift, to women everywhere.</p>
