One of the most human, most reassuring books I've ever read.

A psychiatrist shines a much-needed light on the mental health challenges that healthcare workers face. With clarity and compassion, Jessi Gold reveals how we can do a better job caring for caregivers.

HOW DO YOU FEEL? is a compelling, courageous, and portrait of a psychiatrist. I've never read such an open-hearted and honest account of what it takes to work in mental health care today. This is an ode to the art of clinical carea paean to empathy. Jessi Gold is a true healer and this book is a gift.
