A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

The refreshingly original and “startlingly hopeful” (Lisa Taddeo) debut memoir of an overachieving young lawyer who reluctantly agrees to group psychotherapy and gets psychologically and emotionally naked in a room of six complete strangers—and finds human connection, and herself.

Christie Tate had just been named the top student in her law school class and finally had her eating disorder under control. Why then was she driving through Chicago fantasizing about her own death? Why was she envisioning putting an end to the isolation and sadness that still plagued her despite her achievements?

Enter Dr. Rosen, a therapist who calmly assures her that if she joins one of his psychotherapy groups, he can transform her life. All she has to do is show up and be honest. About everything—her eating habits, childhood, sexual history, etc. Christie is skeptical, insisting that she is defective, beyond cure. But Dr. Rosen issues a nine-word prescription that will change everything: “You don’t need a cure. You need a witness.”

So begins her entry into the strange, terrifying, and ultimately life-changing world of group therapy. Christie is initially put off by Dr. Rosen’s outlandish directives, but as her defenses break down and she comes to trust Dr. Rosen and to depend on the sessions and the prescribed nightly phone calls with various group members, she begins to understand what it means to connect.

“Often hilarious, and ultimately very touching” (People), Group is “a wild ride” (The Boston Globe), and with Christie as our guide, we are given a front row seat to the daring, exhilarating, painful, and hilarious journey that is group therapy—an under-explored process of healing, vulnerability, and human connection, that breaks you down, and then reassembles you so that all the pieces finally fit.

Read by the author, the impression of this book is honest and while I find her reading style and voice would not be suited for other books, it is perfect here. The author tells us her personal growth supported by group therapy over ~7 years of her adult life. Genuine and engaging, the story is well worth listening to and will make you want to join group therapy as well.

Ich kann das Buch wärmstens empfehlen. Die Autorin gibt Einblicke in ihr Leben, in ihre Gedanken, in ihre Gefühle & ihre Geschichte- und das auf eine ganz besondere Art. Unretuschiert, authentisch & ehrlich. Als Leser*in hat man das Gefühl, mittendrin zu sitzen - in der Gruppentherapie. Man erfährt & lernt so vieles - auch über sich selbst.
