Love Is a Choice: The Definitive Book on Letting Go of Unhealthy Relationships | Paul Meier, Robert Hemfelt, Frank Minirth

pick

Very eye-opening examination of codependency and the reasons why people develop this almost addiction to things, behaviors and other people, as a result of unsatisfied emotional needs and which affects so many of us. The book also recommends a recovery plan for those who intend to break the cycle and escape the labyrinth of codependency.

Idols of the Heart: Learning to Long for God Alone | Elyse Fitzpatrick

pick

5 ⭐️s
This book was truly ground-breaking for me, and one that I plan to return to often. Idolatry is something I really struggle with, and a sin that is rarely discussed in modern times. This book was eye-opening, convicting, and encouraging, offering wisdom and advice alongside practical steps for help. Highly recommend.

Counselling People on the Autism Spectrum: A Practical Manual | Katherine Paxton, Irene A. Estay

This is a rather long, but, I found, interesting article about Sonny Hallett's experience as a trans autistic person going through counsellor training in the UK.
I qualified as a counsellor before I knew I was autistic, but obviously I was autistic before I became a counsellor. I wasn't aware of the biases I was exposed to & internalised. It's a journey of discovery!

Bookwomble PS: The tagged book is a handy placeholder. I haven't read it and don't know whether it's good, bad or indifferent. It's published by Jessica Kingsley, though, which is usually a good sign. 1mo

merelybookish I will check this out! I am a counsellor and I am not autistic but I was aware throughout my training and beyond of all the inherent privilege and normalized assumptions embedded in the profession. 1mo

Bookwomble @merelybookish It's something that struck me, t6o, during training, and my dissertation was on perceptions of privilege and disenfranchisement in counseling relationships. It's ironic that I now find (or perceive) myself belonging to a minority community! Sunny mentions the open letter to the BACP, which I wonder if you're aware of? If not I'll post a link if you're interested 😊 1mo

Boundaries: When To Say Yes, How to Say No | Henry Cloud, John Townsend

so-so

Finished my 2nd book of #SummerEndReadathon ! This book uses Bible passages to guide individuals in setting boundaries in their lives. There were a few useful chapters for me, but it felt like a majority of the book was how to establish boundaries in raising children, which is not pertinent to me or my life. I've read other books on this topic that have been more useful to me. @TheSpineView

Just read this again as we were leading a class on it, and it was just as powerful as the first time. I have instituted a lot of the principles in my life but gleaned new insight the second time around.
