Feedback from MTR group members and past participants
“The My Therapist Reads Book Club is a meeting of the minds that I look forward to every month.”
“I love to connect with other clinicians and hearing from the author about their experiences with the book helps to provide valuable insights.”
“I have stockpiled so many work-related books over the years [...] The MTR book club helps to motivate me to pick up the book so I have more resources for my clients. I have finally finished multiple work-related books for the first time in years!”
You don’t have to read the book to participate
No matter how far you are in the book, we encourage you to join us to get useful tools and connect with colleagues.
