Psychology Book - The Tragedy of the Saviors

Who are these tireless saviors who become victims of their burning need to be loved? They are everyday heroes who take their altruism to the extreme. Yet they suffer from at least two tragedies: they were trained early within their family... and never reap the love they so hoped for.Hélène Vecchiali, renowned psychoanalyst and author, tells us everything about savior syndrome, which is more widespread than it seems. It analyzes the intimate drama of the one who holds the power to save, but who, desperately, seeks to be saved himself. She tenderly dissects its modus operandi… and suggests ways to free oneself from it.
