by Elisa Rossi – 2023

In her book, Elisa Rossi, acupuncturist and psychotherapist, explores the practitioner-patient relationship within everyday clinical practice, and observes how drawing on this relationship can maximise the therapeutic results, starting with experiences of uncertainty and disorientation. “Recognising the thoughts that flow through us when a patient leaves us bewildered, bruised or smiling is part of our work, as is knowing how to negotiate the obstacles and sparks that are built into our profession”.
