"An irresistibly addictive tour of the human condition." (Kirkus, starred review)

"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 20-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 our power to transform them.

Opinie krytyków

"Brittany Pressley performs this audiobook at a fast pace that will be familiar to listeners who live in large, bustling cities. But she knows how to moderate her energy for the tender sections, and her overall performance sounds authentic, conversational, and true to the core intentions of the author's story....Portrayed by Pressley, [the author] also sounds like someone you know, which makes her observations and insights all the more accessible." (AudioFile Magazine)

Sehr unterhaltsames Buch! Man hört total gerne zu, nicht nur weil es angenehmen anzuhören ist, sondern weil es einem zum Lachen aber auch zum Nachdenken bringt. Zwischen Leichtigkeit und tiefgründigen Thematiken hat die Autorin eine tolle Balance gefunden:)

Unterhaltsam und gleichzeitig tiefsinnig

The book explores the experience of psychotherapy from the perspective of both the therapist and the patient through the eyes of Lori Gottlieb, a therapist who starts going to therapy herself for support after a major change in her life. She takes us to her sessions with four different pateints as well as hers. The five stories are very relatable and well chosen to cover a broad spectrum of the cases that seek psychotherapy. Through her witt and geniune style, Lori offer us a very entertaining, informative and emotional journey that highlights the struggles we all go through in our daily and how therapy can help us navigate it.
Finally a big shoutout to the narrator Brittany Pressely who does an expectational job conveying the spirit of the book.

most geniune book I've read so far

The book is enjoyably narrative as it follows along the stories of 5 individuals: the author, Lori Gottlieb, and four of her patients (one could also add Lori's eccentric therapist Wendell to the list). It's not a classic self-help book but an Autobiography, tough the author does introduce various concepts of therapy and shares some of her professional insights about therapy.
The book did make me think and overall I enjoyed listening to it quite a lot, yet I still feel like it's lacking a point. I still don't know what the overall "take-home message" was supposed to be. Or was there none? Was there a purpose to the book other than partaking in the lives of these people and seeing therapy from the eyes of a therapist as well as from a patients? I don't know. That's there reason for the 4 stars, I'd still recommend the book though!
