Okay I fucking loved this, I finished it in literally a day & a half. I am a new therapist and I love therapy but am sick and tired about learning about it in a very clinical way. It was gooood, this shit is my special interest. So this is very nichely exactly made for me. I took pics of a lot of pages cuz i wanna keep it in the back of my therapist mind. Overall enjoyed alot.

I think everyone would benefit from reading this book. I absolutely loved the storytelling, it was a great mix of humor and insightful lessons.
I really loved the stories of her patients as well (two in particular: John and Julie); their chapters made me shed some tears. The last 100 pages or so of book was absolutely amazing, I really enjoyed reading this.

As I read this book, my emotions ran the gamut: humor, pain, empathy, criticism. The pendulum swings back and forth throughout the book, which is structured in such a way as to successfully jump around between storylines and background without noticing. The book is very much focused on the practice of therapy, but the four patients, the author’s therapist, and all the others in her life give readers plenty of other aspects of life to think about. We all meet others in our lives who are on the same paths as the four patients and Lori herself, but we don’t know their back stories or how difficult it is for them to cope with the world. This book provided insights into what we don’t see or experience with people and certainly gave me a lot to think about.
This was an incredibly profound memoir, more than I expected. After being in therapy for 3 years this novel inspired me to view my therapist in a much different, eye-opening way. I’m sad it’s over and wish I could read it again for the first time.
