Fall 2026 Book Club

Join us for our next Waves Book Club gathering as we explore The Analyst's Torment: Unbearable States in Countertransference by Dhwani Shah, MD.

November 6th from 2:00pm - 3:00pm PT

This book invites us into some of the more difficult and disorienting experiences that can emerge in clinical work: states that may be hard to think about, difficult to tolerate, and sometimes challenging to distinguish from our own emotional experience. Together, we'll explore what countertransference can reveal when we allow ourselves to stay curious about what feels unbearable.

Come having read as much or as little as you have, and bring your questions, reflections, clinical experiences, and curiosities. As always, this is a space for thoughtful conversation, connection, and a little room for the messiness of being human clinicians.

Please RSVP below so we know you're coming.
