   Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro.   ) kheders | Apr 1, 2024 |  ) ellink | Jan 22, 2024 | I was more interested in Lori's patients than Lori herself, though I did really like Wendell as a character. I stayed up way too late finishing this. I cried and cried when I couldn't get it out of my head that John was Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner. I believe almost everyone could benefit from therapy and this book confirmed that. ( ) LibrarianDest | Jan 3, 2024 | There were a couple of interesting bits here and there about psychotherapy, but if that's why you're reading the book, you'll likely be disappointed. Actually, my favorite couple of paragraphs in the entire book were about Gottlieb experiencing an undiagnosed illness, which I can relate to. (  ) RachelRachelRachel | Nov 21, 2023 | I admit to enjoying the stories about Gottlieb's patients slightly more than her own, which felt self-indulgent. But I fell in love with all her patients; their neuroses and vulnerability and deep human need to be seen and understood. I adored Julie, the dying cancer patient; Rita, the senior citizen with a life full of regrets; and Charlotte, the lost millennial looking for love in all the wrong places. But the person I loved the most was John. His story, his personal growth, and his eventual tenderness brought me to tears more than once. I loved this voyeuristic look at what goes on behind the closed doors of a therapist's office. I'm grateful to Gottlieb and her clients for pulling aside the curtain and proving that no matter how different our individual life experiences may have been, we all struggle with the same vital things: death, loneliness, freedom, and meaninglessness.

HTML:INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Now being developed as a television series with Eva Longoria and ABC! "Rarely have I read a book that challenged me to see myself in an entirely new light, and was at the same time laugh-out-loud funny and utterly absorbing."??Katie Couric "This is a daring, delightful, and transformative book."??Arianna Huffington, Founder, Huffington Post and Founder & CEO, Thrive Global "Wise, warm, smart, and funny. You must read this book."??Susan Cain, New York Times best-selling author of Quiet From a New York Times best-selling author, psychotherapist, and national advice columnist, a hilarious, thought-provoking, and surprising new book that takes us behind the scenes of a therapist's world??where her patients are looking for answers (and so is she). One day, Lori Gottlieb is a therapist who helps patients in her Los Angeles practice. The next, a crisis causes her world to come crashing down. Enter Wendell, the quirky but seasoned therapist in whose office she suddenly lands. With his balding head, cardigan, and khakis, he seems to have come straight from Therapist Central Casting. Yet he will turn out to be anything but. As Gottlieb explores the inner chambers of her patients' lives ?? a self-absorbed Hollywood producer, a young newlywed diagnosed with a terminal illness, a senior citizen threatening to end her life on her birthday if nothing gets better, and a twenty-something who can't stop hooking up with the wrong guys ?? she finds that the questions they are struggling with are the very ones she is now bringing to Wendell. With startling wisdom and humor, Gottlieb invites us into her world as both clinician and patient, examining the truths and fictions we tell ourselves and others as we teeter on the tightrope between love and desire, meaning and mortality, guilt and redemption, terror and courage, hope and change. Maybe You Should Talk to Someone is revolutionary in its candor, offering a deeply personal yet universal tour of our hearts and minds and providing the rarest of gifts: a boldly revealing portrait of what it means to be human, and a disarmingly funny and illuminating account of our own mysterious lives and ou Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
