Why should modern psychotherapists be interested in philosophy,
especially ancient philosophy? Why should philosophers be interested
in psychotherapy? There is a sense of mutual attraction between what
are today two thoroughly distinct disciplines. However, arguably it
was not always the case that they were distinct.

Donald Robertson, the author, takes the view that by reconsidering the
generally received wisdom concerning the history of these closely-
related subjects, we can learn a great deal about both philosophy and
psychotherapy, under which heading he includes potentially solitary
pursuits such as “self-help” and “personal development”.
