The Real Artist

A seasoned therapist, specializing in art therapy, eating disorders, and addictions recovery, provides the case study, which takes a client from suicide attempt to happy life. She offers a wealth of cognitive behavioral restructuring tools for liberation from perseverating our past.

According to the author, love hunger, as a contingency of survival, is our main drive. With therapeutic intervention, our thoughts, behaviors, and feelings become solution-focused. Names of people and places are fictitious, but suspense, humor, and insights tell a true story starting from the 1940s, before political correctness, through the present aftermath of no moral absolutes, no impulse restrained. This book is the go-to for developing outrageously satisfying intimacy with a creative genius not of this world.
