Say goodbye to self-condemnation

Experienced psycho- and trauma therapist Jochen Peichl introduces typical inner critics: the Controller, the Perfectionist, the Driver, the All-Right-Maker, and the Critic (Judge). These fault-finders, know-it-alls, and pessimists are all parts of our personality and have often accompanied us since childhood. The author demonstrates with many examples how we can rein them in while also recognizing their strengths and potential, ultimately learning to use them as a support group. The detailed self-test "Your Inner Critics" also helps transform annoying pessimists into constructive and helpful self-aspects.

The new edition of this successful bestseller has been expanded by Jochen Peichl with an additional preface and supplemented with new information, such as the voice of the critics and the criticized child within us. It offers easily understandable expert knowledge for self-awareness, along with many exercises and a comprehensive self-test. Enhanced with new information, including insights into the voice of the critics and the criticized child within us. Features numerous illustrations.
