It's pretty good if you're familiar with therapy/psychology already. I would not recommend this to someone actively needing help. Perhaps it's giving into temptation and reading the reviews halfway into reading, but the author's grotesque detail into his client's traumas and the way he describes some of his fem clients do come off voyeuristic, to which he pointed out himself in chapter 15.
At best, I got a tour of some helpful methods to cope with life's catastrophes.
