Reviews and Endorsements

Tony Rousmaniere has a great ability to help therapists learn deliberate practice skills. Not only does Tony have an incredible grasp of the scholarly literature, but he also knows how to make it practical and actionable. This second edition of Mastering the Inner Skills of Psychotherapy is even better than the first. I don't know of another book that addresses ways for therapists to manage their internal reactions within a deliberate practice framework. I'm excited to recommend this to others!

This second edition of Mastering the Inner Skills of Psychotherapy is a tour de force. Tony Rousmaniere is a master storyteller who leads the reader through his own very personal quest to become more than a "good enough" therapist. In the process, Rousmaniere reveals the secrets of deliberate practice in a down-to-earth, accessible, practical, and impactful manner. A must-read for therapists who won't settle for less than bringing forth the best of themselves in the challenging work they do.

This book is a substantial contribution to the field of psychotherapy and is uniquely designed to foster deeper reflection and skill development among practitioners committed to mastering their craft. The inner skills of psychotherapy can be nurtured and developed through the deliberate practice exercises included in this essential manual. No other resource in our field today so effectively tackles the therapist as a person and addresses how to enhance our ability to tolerate painful and distressing affect in the room with our clients. Mastering the Inner Skills of Psychotherapy: A Deliberate Practice Manual on Building Psychological Capacity, Second Edition should be required reading for therapists of all levels of training.
