Here Kasl advocates a holistic approach to developing intimate relationships with friends, family, neighbors, spouses, and the natural world. She begins with issues of affirmation and self-esteem that interfere with intimacy. In the short, readable chapters that follow, Kasl gives suggestions for developing friendships on many levels, emphasizing the need for self-knowledge and trust. Using illustrations from her own experience as a therapist and Quaker activist throughout, she describes techniques of communication, including listening and conversation skills, shows how conflict can be a means of growth and learning, and offers strategies for building a nurturing community. .Lucille M.

VG+ 1991 1st thus Cover bright, very minor shelfwear Pages clean, edges lt age tone From Publishers Weekly: Capacious intelligence, generous spirit and quirky grace characterize this collection of essays from the author of Making Contact . Focusing on the interaction between therapist and patient, the aptly named Havens, a psychiatrist, calls for a reliably secure relationship--the safe place of the title--in which the two can approach healing change together. Often exploring issues raised by specific patients--including, among others, one who committed suicide, a schizophrenic and a psychopath--Havens introduces a powerful humanity to the case study, using his experiences of these individuals to illustrate what seemed to work, what mistakes were made, and what conclusions might cautiously be drawn. Finding value in silence and reward in surprise, he advocates that therapists balance credulity with skepticism, charging them ``to stay with the battle and feel, and not run from what must be borne.'' In fluent prose, he explicates the delicate paradoxes which comprise his field; his ideas may best be appreciated by readers familiar with psychotherapy and analysis. Paying respect to Freud and homage to Harry Stack Sullivan, Havens calls for a more humanized psychotherapy, one all the more demanding for its elusive, unquantifiable, increasingly important goals. (Oct.) Library Journal Havens (psychiatry, Harvard Medical Sch.) offers an updated perspective on the patient-therapist alliance (i.e., safe-place making) and a review of the professional need for constant awareness of the level of psychiatric uncertainty (i.e., clinical cognition's susceptibility to the transient mores of each decade). Influenced by Winnicott and Sullivan, Havens believes in treatment as ``protection against the world, including that part of the world represented by the therapist.'' His is a wary but steady faith in the promise of psychotherapeutic healing, with the final chapter presenting a striking and overarching vision of psychotherapy's near future. Perhaps too circumspect for the lay reader, for the noncredentialed and therapists-in-training this book is a timely and trustworthy overview of the field.

Not that she ever has. After all, her generation expects to stay forever young. But now she feels old and empty inside. Nothing she thinks of trying (plastic surgery, a vacation, a puppy, or a new husband) can make her feel young again. Then she meets Adele---a woman who never expected to be ninety-four---alone, forgotten, and living in a nursing home.Am I Old Yet? is an inspiring memoir that takes us deep into a world where most hope never to enter and few, willingly, dare to go: the nursing home. What for Leah begins as a reluctant agreement to spend one hour a week with Adele at the California Chateau evolves into hundreds of hours. Through their visits and conversations (about aging, death, miracles, and even sex), Adele, who is completely blind, surprisingly is the one who helps Leah see the truth about growing old. With Adele as her host, Leah becomes a regular at the Chateau events: sing-a-longs, food fights in the dining room, a Halloween party (where pirates swashbuckle in wheelchairs). Gradually, her own fears of aging begin to lift as she sees that Adele--- resilient, independent, and almost embarrassingly enthusiastic---is, in many ways, younger than she is.This original and poignant book obliterates the generation gap. It shares the 'coming-of-age' stories of two wonderful and flawed women, fifty years apart, who find themselves in places in their lives they never thought they'd be and in a friendship they never dreamed they'd know. Am I Old Yet? revealsthat no matter how old people are, if they have love in their lives there is only one age: Alive.. First Edition, First Printing. Hard Cover.
