Maybe You Should Talk to Someone

In one of my future dream scenarios, I become a therapist at age 55. This idea becomes even more alluring while I read the memoir Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by psychotherapist Lori Gottlieb. In this book, she weaves together client stories and her own recent stint as a therapy patient. For me, the psychological information she includes is just as compelling as the client stories. If the Psych 101 class I took at college had been as interesting as her portrayal of this science, perhaps I would have attended medical school long ago. I’m willing to place a bet on the number of folks who decide to give therapy a try after reading this memoir. At the very least, I believe this gem of a book will give its readers a new appreciation for the art and science that lead to transformation within a therapy office.
