Sister Mary (Paperback)

In this moving collaboration between psychotherapist and patient, Sister Mary relates her own story of abuse as a child by a much loved father, and the three years of psychoanalytic psychotherapy she underwent with Nini Herman when she was in her forties. This book provides an insight into the developing relationship between a patient and her psychotherapist and includes the important part played by the use of art therapy when Sister Mary became almost mute.
