Serious Matters

Halenta draws on more than three decades as a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist. Her replies bring professional experience to the particular circumstances of the person writing.

Five chapters explore how we relate to ourselves, difficulties in relationships, family concerns, problems involving children and our interactions with others. Self-confidence, fears and conflicts are among the issues readers raise.

The letter-and-reply format keeps each concern close to the person experiencing it. For readers seeking to understand themselves and others, these exchanges offer recognisable experiences and different ways of looking at a situation. Volume 1 is also available in German as Ernste Angelegenheiten.
