“This book is so good! Each entry has tons of wisdom. The illustrations are fabulous, and Thea Ernest is loaded with visual knowledge. The book is funny, but it’s profound, you realize, after you’ve read about four of the entries. Then, you go back, got to read them again, think things over. Wilcox, who’s worked fifty-five years in her field, powerfully condenses her learnings about human behavior, and then, best of all, makes the teachings accessible.” —Daisy Broudy, LICSW “ Simple Therapy Snippets (the brainchild of author Cynthia Wilcox and illustrator Thea Ernest) is a tender, gently nuanced, and lovingly crafted gem of a book—a slender volume and ‘easy read’ that somehow manages to offer ‘therapeutic tidbits’ that are at once simple (yes) but profound, humble but sophisticated, unassuming but quietly compelling, and subtle but absolutely riveting. Partaking of the ‘tasty bites’ is a supremely efficient way to expose yourself to some delightfully evocative (and humorous) pearls of wisdom about life, relationships, communication, feelings, and authenticity—the words and the illustrations complementing each other beautifully! “At the end of the day, Simple Therapy Snippets is a handy guide to ‘living well.’ Even the titles of some of the tidbits—‘No Is a Full Sentence’ and ‘The Courage to Live in the Space of Not Knowing’—will whet your appetite for making a commitment to living, going forward, with more clarity, courage, conviction, and consciousness. “Just as you will probably get as much out of your life as you are willing to put into it, so too you will probably get as much out of this book as you are willing to put into it. So, please, cherish the finely honed wisdom contained on the pages within this uplifting volume, relax into their refreshing flow, and revisit them whenever you are in need of a little inspiration and some cost-effective ‘at-home therapy’!” —Martha Stark, MD; Faculty, Harvard Medical School; Award-winning author of nine books on the integration of psychoanalytic theory and practice, including Relentless Hope: The Refusal to Grieve “Many years ago, Cynthia saved my life. As I read through Simple Therapy Snippets , I am reminded of all the hard work she and I undertook. I remember well sifting through my ‘Childhood Survival Skills’, my ‘Relentless Hope’ and many other ‘Snippets’ Cynthia has compiled in this extraordinary book. “ Simple Therapy Snippets compiles many of the concepts which were so helpful to me as I walked with Cynthia through my healing journey. Simple Therapy Snippets describes the beliefs one can hold about oneself and the explanation of why those beliefs become so deeply rooted.” —Rose Bottari “I like this book a lot. Simple, easy-to-read advice. Cynthia has collected a lot of wisdom over the years.” —Farrell Klein MD, Newport Hospital
