Hilfe! Psychotherapie

How do I recognize a mental illness and find the right doctor for my individual suffering? What form of therapy is suitable for me, and what are my chances of recovery? The renowned psychiatrist Hans-Joachim Maaz summarizes his knowledge and understanding of psychotherapy from over 40 years of practical experience in this book. It serves as a practical guide that vividly describes various forms of therapy and the course of treatment, illustrated with numerous case examples. Thus, the book provides orientation for both patients and therapists. Additionally, it aims to stimulate critical reflection; it encourages while also addressing the inevitable limits of psychotherapy and warns against excessive wellness and efficiency thinking in therapy. Instead, Maaz advocates for dignity as the highest and most important life goal. Dignity, however, prevails.
