Psych student needs help finding a good book

I am planning on going into psychology and hope to someday open my own practice as a clinical psychologist. I believe that I have a very good understanding of peoples personalities and their behaviors but I fail in the area of critical thinking. I lack the ability to disect peoples problems and find the root of the cause, and even if I did find it I probably wouldn't know what to do with the knowledge. So far most of the books I read are just self-help books and are focused on helping the reader. I need something that aids me in helping others rather than just myself and teaches me the process of going about it. What books would you recommend to a beginning psych student who is interested in doing talk therapy? What are some other must read books for the field of psychology? Thanks.

Hello, yes. there is web site called www.factsheetsplus.com or handoutsplus.com (it’s one of those two). You can sign up for free fact sheets they distribute during the year. I think they send out half dozen or so. They are all editable. Look at the www.handoutsplus.com section. You can edit them in MS Publisher, MS Word, and they give you the PDF, I am pretty sure.
