Summary:

"In FREUD ON MY COUCH, Richard M. Berlin's fourth collection of poems, the poet continues to explore the emotional and psychological terrain at the heart of medical and psychiatric practice from a revealing, insider's perspective. His poems allow readers to consider their own lives from the viewpoint of someone familiar with the inner workings of our bodies and minds, someone conversant with the invisible processes of life and death. The poet's voice is one of sensitive and vivid tenderness as he touches on themes of intimacy, love, the relationship between doctor and patient, the drama of psychotherapy, Sigmund Freud and his addictions, and the satisfactions that come from a life of healing. In this collection of poems, Richard M. Berlin confirms that medical and psychiatric practice fit well with Pablo Neruda's description of poetry: "Entrance into the depth of things in a headlong act of love."" --Amazon.
