Description We don’t realise the negative impact of holding onto old presumptions and prejudices. Our childhood thinking and hoarding of pain may make us feel ‘right’, but not happy. Claudia Davimes’s thirty-five years as a therapist led her to question this need to be right. She dared herself to be wrong about a person or outcome. The freedom of owning fresh, adult perspectives brought unexpected joy. She built this freedom into her work and offered it to her clients, watching the joy spread. The Joy of Being Wrong includes stories and dialogues that offer a glimpse into the therapeutic process and practical tools you can apply to your own life. It will show you that you can discover the joy of being wrong by understanding the laws you live by, what you can change your mind about, and how to let go of things that no longer serve you. Claudia Ira Davimes has worked for 35 years as a social worker and therapist in Johannesburg, specialising in adults and couples. She has helped hundreds of clients move past pain to joy and counselled generations of clients through marriage, life changes, divorce, children, and grief with her no-nonsense style of humour and wisdom. Claudia was the resident social worker on the TV programme 3Talk for years. 266 pages Published 20 March 2025 SKU 9781037047565
