With over 100,000 posts and 2 million pageviews, the Voicelessness and Emotional Survival Message Board has become a valuable resource for people learning about and dealing with narcissistic spouses/partners, boyfriends/girlfriends, parents, siblings, adult children, bosses, and co-workers--as well as other sources of "voicelessness."
What if the most powerful tool in a therapist’s "toolbox" is the relationship between client and therapist? And what if this tool is neither examined nor taught in therapist training programs? Voicelessness and Emotional Survival: Notes from the therapy underground, a short book by Dr. Richard Grossman begins by describing the author’s personal and painful experiences as a student, practitioner and patient in the traditional therapy world and then reveals what he learned from these experiences (including the importance of “character,” “subtext” and “repetition” in all relationships, including therapeutic relationships), how understanding and valuing the real patient-therapist relationship changed his practice of therapy and how this new approach significantly improves the lives of patients. CBS News calls this new approach "relationship therapy for one" (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-bachelorette-rachel-lindsay-and-relationship-therapy-for-one/). The book is available on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1790164028.
A book has also been written by Sara Field, describing in detail her experience of this therapy from the patient side of the room: The Mathematician and the Teddy Bear: My epic struggle to let someone in. This book is also available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Mathematician-Teddy-Bear-struggle-someone/dp/1514215772/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=The+Mathematician+and+the+Teddy+Bear&qid=1563841976&s=gateway&sr=8-1
