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.  This has led me to create a series of written pieces - Novel Insights - where I link the excerpt with the theory.

 

I believe 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 a world that seems to demand instant answers to complex questions.

 

My hope is they go some way towards de-mystifying therapy as well as providing food for thought!
