Everyone has secrets. Lisa Harden has spent years polishing her image as a successful psychotherapist, highly respected and well known in her field. When a new patient appears in her office asking for therapy, Lisa is inexplicably unnerved and fights hard to keep up appearances. Only when the price of keeping her secret takes her to the brink of losing everything, including her marriage, does Lisa finally return to Canada to confront her past. But it may already be too late.

Therapists are not immune to the range of problems their clients experience, including divorce, bereavement, illness, and depression. The Myth of the Untroubled Therapist considers what kinds of difficulties clinicians face and considers the best ways of dealing with them.

The book explores the heartfelt journeys of couples who adopted Native children during the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Through personal narratives, it sheds light on the profound connections formed between adoptive parents and their children, as well as the broader implications of cross-cultural adoption during this transformative period.
