My name's Joanna Yeldham and I'm an online psychotherapist and passionate reader. 

​

Since becoming a therapist I've begun to notice, every now and then, a line or two in whichever novel I'm reading that perfectly captures a concept from the world of psychotherapy.  Keen to share these, I've created written pieces - Novel Insights - where I link each excerpt with an insight from the world of therapy.

 

Good novels nourish the soul, offering a space to explore the complexity of what it is to be human - something which feels particularly important in today's world which seems to demand instant answers to complex questions...

 

I hope you enjoy these windows into some of the ideas we therapists hold in mind as we work.  Perhaps they may even prompt you to reflect on your own experiences!
