Book excerpt: WHO'S CRAZY ANYWAY? Therapist Joan Mazza lets you decide! This extremely useful guide to therapy grew out of Joan Mazza's experience as both a patient in therapy, as well as years as a practicing therapist. Using what she learned, she has written a practical, easy-to-read book designed to help readers make informed, wise decisions when seeking the help they need. The book is written in user-friendly sound bites. Each topic covered has a brief explanation and in some cases, examples. As new concepts and techniques in the mental health field are being developed by pioneering and innovative therapists all the time, it is impossible to list all the therapy models and techniques available today. Still, Joan Mazza covers the main schools of thought and practice, as well as many non-traditional methods. An extensive bibliography recommends other books for study in those areas where readers may wish to seek further, more extensive coverage. When practiced responsibly, ethically and with caution, psychotherapy has a lot to offer people in distress. This book encourages readers to think critically about their problems and how they can be resolved. It suggests the types of help to pursue, and urges patients to be good consumers-willing to evaluate services received as they proceed. Who's Crazy Anyway? suggests questions for readers to ask themselves and their therapist. Joan Mazza contends that you know what's best for you, and this book is a good place to begin.
