NPR's Rhaina Cohen is the  The Other Significant Others: Reimagining Life with Friendship at the Center,   The Other Significant Others invites us into the lives of people who have defied convention by choosing a friend as a life partner—from friends raising a child together to best friends of 50 years who live together in their retiree years. Based on years of original reporting and striking social science research, Cohen argues that we undermine romantic relationships by expecting too much of them while we diminish friendships by expecting too little of them. At a time when many Americans are spending large stretches of their lives single, widowed or divorced, or feeling the effects of the "loneliness epidemic," Cohen insists that we recognize the many forms of profound connection that can anchor our lives. A groundbreaking book, The Other Significant Others challenges us to ask what we want from our relationships—not just what we're supposed to want—and transforms how we define a fulfilling life The book looks at how friendship is woefully undervalued, and we do ourselves a societal disservice by believing that a lifelong romantic relationship is essential for having a full, meaningful adulthood. Cohen makes this case through the stories of people who've built a life with a friend—raising children together, buying homes together, and taking care of each other in old age. Amid a loneliness epidemic, declining marriage rates and changing family forms, she argues that we'd benefit from recognizing the variety of relationships that ground people's lives “Rhaina Cohen's moving, intimate portraits of people in unusually devoted friendships upend our cultural narratives about which relationships matter. A perceptive and vivid reporter, she reveals that there are far more pathways to deep connection and fulfillment than we've been made to believe. The Other Significant Others is an arresting work of compassion and insight.”  —Lori Gottlieb, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone and co-host of Dear Therapists podcast   “In her lovingly written The Other Significant Others, Rhaina Cohen does crucial work by questioning easy social categorization and the hierarchies of recognition and privilege that too often put romantically coupled pairs at the top. The Other Significant Others is energetic, open, considered, and beautifully reported. It thrums with a passion for the subject, and is powered by a historically rich, intellectually serious curiosity about the relationships that provide backbone and ballast to so many of our lives, but which have only recently begun to receive the consideration they are due.” —Rebecca Traister, New York Times bestselling author of All the Single Ladies and Good and Mad https://www.rhainacohen.com

Paid subscribers get full access to my interview with Lori Gottlieb. The first half of this episode is available to all listeners. To hear the entire conversation, become a paying subscriber here. Psychotherapist and writer Lori Gottlieb visited The Unspeakable in 2021 to talk about her bestselling book Maybe You Should Talk To Someone. She returns for a Valentine's Day episode about finding love, staying in love, and what to make of all the social scientists constantly going on about how marriage and family are essential for mental, physical and even economic well-being. To that, Lori says, “well, obviously!” But she also asks “how are you supposed to find someone when our social systems are so dysfunctional?” Her own story involves becoming a mother on her own in her 30s (her son Zach is a budding Gen Z thought leader in his own right) and trying to balance her own dating life with childrearing and a busy career. In this conversation, she talks about how she tries to help clients who are struggling to find love, how honest talk about female fertility became taboo sometime in the 2000s, why dating apps are making things so much worse, and why age gaps in romantic relationships seem more prevalent than ever. She also explains why, for older daters, widowed people can make the best partners and, finally, why more singles should seriously consider hiring a matchmaker. GUEST BIO Lori Gottlieb is a psychotherapist and the New York Times best-selling author of “Maybe You Should Talk to Someone” and “Marry Him: The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough.” She is also a TED Speaker, the co-host of the popular "Dear Therapists" podcast, and the “Dear Therapist” columnist for The Atlantic.

This week, we're re-releasing a 2021 episode of Status Check with Spivey that is more relevant to our listeners than ever—our interview with Dr. Guy Winch. In what has ended up being one of our favorite episodes ever, Dr. Winch discusses his own experiences with rejection in admissions, the research behind these feelings, and specific interventions for moving forward confidently and positively. He also tells a story about the first time he applied to graduate school—he applied to 10 different programs, was denied by 9, and was "ghosted" (he literally never heard from them) by the 10th. Which makes his conversation with us not just incredibly helpful, but also relatable. We've all been rejected at something, many things—including those at the very pinnacle of their professional careers. Dr. Guy Winch is one of the world's leading psychologists and speakers. He has delivered three TED Talks with over 30 million views combined, all three of which can be seen here. He has published three books and along with best-selling author Lori Gottlieb co-hosts the podcast Dear Therapists. You can listen and subscribe to Status Check with Spivey on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, YouTube, and Google Podcasts.

Ryan speaks with Lori Gottlieb about the profound effect that stories have on our lives, why we are all unreliable narrators, how we can make real steps toward positive change by practicing self-compassion, understanding other peoples' experiences by listening to their stories, and more.Lorr Gottlieb is a physiotherapist, writer, speaker, and podcast host whose work focuses on the role that stories and storytelling take in shaping our mental landscape. She obtained an undergraduate degree at Stanford University and a Masters of Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University, and she is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

Psychotherapist, podcast host, and New York Times bestselling author, Lori Gottlieb, is here right in time to help us actually enjoy the holiday season, no matter what stress might come along with it.

Plus, she's offering her highly sought after “Dear Therapists” advice to the Vinos who are looking to set and hold boundaries during the holiday season.

A renowned psychotherapist shares how to navigate the most difficult parts of being a business owner I wholeheartedly believe that entrepreneurship can be one of the best gifts you can give yourself. It can bring you freedom to design your life the way that you want to, all while doing something that you love.  But as you probably already know, if not managed well, the stress of being a business owner can really take a toll on you. On the daily, entrepreneurs deal with things like decision fatigue, loneliness, and burnout. In fact, I recently read an alarming statistic that 72% of entrepreneurs struggle with mental health, and I'll be honest -- that number feels far too high, and a little close to home!  It's one of my goals to bring more awareness to this issue that affects so many people in business, and that's why I invited Lori Gottlieb to be a guest on the show. Lori is a renowned psychotherapist and New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, which now has a journal to go along with it. (Listen to find out how to get a chance to win one of these!)  In addition to her clinical practice, she is co-host of the popular Dear Therapists podcast, and writes The Atlantic's weekly Dear Therapist advice column.  In this important conversation, Lori shares how to: Find balance between vulnerability and being viewed as an expert Lean on your own intuition more when making stressful decisions  Tap into more acceptance and enjoyment when things change, versus fear  Navigate loneliness as an entrepreneur Plus much, much more!  I'll go ahead and call it right here -- this episode is going to be a fan-favorite. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts "I love Amy and Online Marketing Made Easy."

Join us as we chat about where the feeling of shame comes from and how the shame industrial complex is working tirelessly to make us feel less than and to make us desire to spend money, time, and energy to change ourselves.

We have another free therapy session with a favorite return guest -- psychologist, author, and speaker Guy Winch! On this episode, we're breaking down complaining from all angles, including the problem with not voicing your complaints to your partner, to how much complaining is too much in a relationship. We're also discussing the most effective way to complain both in relationships and in general life situations (like with a retailer or landlord), how to deal with chronic complainers (whether they're your partner, friend, or parent), and friendships defined by complaining. Plus, we cover how to complain in a funny way and sexual complaints (separate topics lol).

We hope you enjoyed Season 3 of Dear Therapists. As we get ready for Season 4, we have two special bonus episodes to share with you.

In these two bonus episodes, we do a case consultation with our intern, Ben, a psychology graduate student who pre-interviews the guests and helps select who gets on the show.    This week/Next week we'll unpack what worked with a session we loved, “Adam's Cheating Boyfriend.” The next week, we'll talk about a session that didn't go as well–and share what we would have done differently.   If you have a dilemma you'd like to discuss with us—big or small—email us at LoriAndGuy@iHeartMedia.com.   Follow us both online:   LoriGottlieb.com and on Twitter @LoriGottlieb1 and Instagram @lorigottlieb_author   GuyWinch.com and on Twitter @GuyWinch and Instagram @Guy Winch   Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are honored to be joined again by psychotherapist and bestselling author Lori Gottlieb to discuss a topic so many can relate to: The mother daughter relationship. Lori expertly and compassionately walks us through how to navigate a strained relationship with a mother (or parent) if you have resentment about your childhood/their parenting, feel like they are critical or competitive with you, are lacking boundaries or the tools to express your feelings to them, or just want a better relationship in general. We are also discussing our relationships with our moms; and before we jump into the topic, we're opening up (maybe too much) about some body stuff, unpacking a spooky situation, and recapping Selling the OC.

She sheds light on what you should expect from a therapist, how to engage your past and future without hurting your present self, and shares maybe my favorite podcast quote yet, “We always like to say: before diagnosing someone with depression, make sure they aren't surrounded by assholes…” FOLLOW LORI Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lorigottlieb_author/ FOLLOW VIVIAN: vivnunez.com instagram.com/vivnunez

Have you ever had such a great conversation that you simply had to have more time? Silly question, I know! We've all had that. One of mine recently was with my guest Lori Gottlieb during her superb interview for episode 104 about 8 weeks ago. After we spoke, I said, “There's so much more I'd like to ask you!” Fortunately, she was game, so later that same afternoon, we recorded this episode! As you'll hear, she shares about how she and her colleague, Guy Winch, created their stellar podcast, Dear Therapists, as well as more about her well-cultivated thoughts on therapy. And, a brief refresher on Lori: she has a thriving psychotherapy practice in Los Angeles. She's authored multiple books including, Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, which has sold over one million copies. In addition, her TED talk is magnificent and has millions of views. And she has a TV show in the works! I can't say enough about Lori, and I hope you'll listen to both episodes. You'll see why she has been such an international sensation. So, listen in on a bit more from a psychotherapy thought leader, Lori Gottlieb, on this PS edition!

Heartbreak is a painful part of life. When we're in it, it can be all-consuming, exhausting, and overwhelming. And to be sure, the skill to attend to it is not typically taught in school. But what is heartbreak and how does it affect us? Why does the heart actually hurt when we're in it? And what can be done to fix a heart that's broken? Fortunately, I know just the guy to ask, and his name happens to be Guy! Dr. Guy Winch (https://www.guywinch.com/) is an internationally renowned psychologist, the author of multiple superb TED talks, and the co-host of a podcast called Dear Therapists with his brilliant colleague and fellow SuperPsyched guest, Lori Gottlieb. He's also the bestselling author of several books, including How to Fix a Broken Heart. I loved this book as have thought leaders like Esther Perel, who said the book was, "Well researched and deeply practical. How to Fix a Broken Heart provides the validation, comfort, and hope anyone who is heartbroken desperately needs." So, listen in as Guy and I talk about How to Fix a Broken Heart.

Lori is a psychotherapist in Los Angeles, co-host of the podcast Dear Therapists, and the author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone.Mental health is a priority now more than ever, so what are the overlooked signs that someone is struggling with mental health, how do you know if you should talk to a professional, and why is boundary setting crucial to positive mental health?What to Listen ForIntroduction – 0:00What are the overlooked signs that someone is struggling with mental health issues?What is the value in seeing a therapist versus talking to your friends and family about issues you're experiencing in life?The self-sabotaging stories we tell ourselves – 11:12 Why do we tell ourselves stories about what happens to us and how do those stories have lasting negative impacts on us and the people around us?What impact do the people around us have on our mental health and what can you do if your friends aren't healthy for you?Setting and maintaining boundaries – 24:24How do you set boundaries and maintain them with people who constantly violate them? Finding the right person – 47:05What is the number one question you should ask yourself when on a first date?Mental health is something many people struggle with, but often don't talk about. The signs that someone is struggling can be easily overlooked if you're not aware of them. It's important to be there for your loved ones and help them get the help they need if you see any of these signs. If you're experiencing mental health issues, it's valuable to seek out therapy. Friends and family are great sources of support, but sometimes talking to somebody neutral who isn't invested in our lives can be really helpful, even lifesaving. A Word From Our SponsorsDo you LOVE the toolbox episodes?

Psychologist Guy Winch's passion is “getting people to prioritize their emotional health and give them tools to do that with and concepts to understand it with.” He was already a TED Talk speaker and the acclaimed author of Emotional First Aid and How to Fix a Broken Heart when he was a guest on the podcast, but so much has happened since then! He became TED's first columnist with his science-based advice column, Dear Guy.  In 2020, he launched the Dear Therapists podcast with his co-host Lori Gottlieb, where they provide insights and actionable advice in real-life sessions.  His career highlight so far, though, occurred just last year. He had the honor of being invited to 10 Downing Street to speak to the UK government and give them his recommendations for emotional and mental health policies to institute across the UK. He has a great story about arriving at the Prime Minister's residence!  Guy has already reached millions of people through his books, talks, and podcasts, but, he says, to “start the ball rolling in some small way over something that can really be good for the entire nation and just to have that privilege and to be given that opportunity is not something I would have ever dreamt would happen.”  In a few weeks, he'll be addressing a branch of the US government on the same topic. In the meantime, he reminds everyone that “there are two aspects to your well being; there's physical health and there's your emotional and psychological health. I separate emotional health from mental health because mental health is kind of, once you have a diagnosis of something, once something is very wrong. Emotional health is all the stuff that precedes that, is just your general well being, and there's so much we can do for our emotional health on a daily basis.” You can get links to all of Guy's books and talks on his website and follow him on Instagram.

One way to ensure that we are living, and I mean truly living, during this lifetime, is to live an examined life. By that, I mean living consciously with the humility to examine what's going on, how we're living, the choices we're making, and the unconscious drivers that may lead us down the wrong roads. A good method to deal with this, of course, is through psychotherapy. I am so grateful for my years that I have invested in examining my own life, and for the benefits I've received from this service I also provide. One of my favorite stories of engaging therapy comes from a highly esteemed colleague, Lori Gottlieb (https://lorigottlieb.com/). Lori is one of the most well-known therapists in the world today. She has a thriving psychotherapy practice in Los Angeles, she's a New York Times bestselling author with over a million copies of her book sold, her TED talk is magnificent and has millions of views, she writes a column in the Atlantic, and her podcast, Dear Therapists, with Guy Winch, is top-notch. And, like all of us, she is human. She has had her own existential crises during which she recognized she needed her own therapy, a process she details extensively in her brilliant book, Maybe You Should Talk to Someone. This is a book that has received spectacular praise and is packed with wisdom, goodness, and it is so unputdownable that I have listened to its audio version twice. It provides profound psychological truths and, in captivating story form, shows the internal struggles we all experience when we are thinking about starting our own psychotherapy. To add a layer of richness, Lori courageously describes her own process of being in psychotherapy and from the vantage point of a highly seasoned therapist. What gets in the way of us seeking our own therapy? What gets in the way of us asking for what we want? What are some of the pain points as we grow even as we attain some of the results we have been seeking? These and so many other questions are answered in this captivating interview. So, listen in as Lori and discuss that nagging feeling of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone. Book Link: https://tinyurl.com/ycksn9d4

Somewhere in the rows and rows of office cubicles that make up the emotional business of our brains, there's one employee hellbent on burning the whole place down. Her name…is childhood.

Psychotherapist and bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, Lori Gottlieb, offers a way to set our childhoods free: changing the stories we tell ourselves.A few of the curiosities you'll uncover in this episode:Why we're all unreliable narrators of our lifeThe long-term impacts of talking our kids out of feeling what they're feelingThe 3 questions to ask ourselves to help rid of negative self-talkTo learn more about Lori's book, Maybe You Should Talk to Someone (in both written and audio form), and to check out the podcast she co-hosts called “Dear Therapists,” visit www.lorigottlieb.com. Curious State is a Quick and Dirty Tips podcast hosted and produced by Doug Fraser.Find Curious State on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, or subscribe to our newsletter for the latest updates.Podcast Manager - Adam Cecil Assistant Manager - Emily MillerPodcast and Advertising Operations Specialist - Morgan ChristiansonMarketing Publicity Assistant - Davina TomlinIntern - Brendan Picha The Quick and Dirty Tips network is a division of Macmillan Publishers in partnership with Mignon Fogarty, Inc.

Today on the show we have Lori Gottleib, a psychotherapist, speaker, and New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone. Lori is also the co-host of the “Dear Therapists” podcast and writes The Atlantic's weekly advice column, “Dear Therapist.” So, suffice to say, Lori knows about human nature.In this conversation, Lori talks about the difference between satisficers and maximizers, and how we make choices about what to put in our homes based on what we value.She also shares about how (due to the pandemic) she's been able to see inside people's homes in a way she never would have in the past since many of her therapy sessions moved to Zoom – and how she could see new aspects of people's personalities, and what's important to them, based on their aesthetic choices.Website: LoriGottleib.comInstagram: @lorigottleib_authorBook: Maybe You Should Talk to SomoneWorkbook: Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: The WorkbookPodcast: Dear TherapistsAdvice Column: Dear TherapistWatch: Lori's TED TalkABOUT THIS PODCAST For more information about this episode, or other podcast episodes, visit Hunker.com/podcast.This podcast is produced and hosted by Laurie Gunning Grossman.Being Home With Hunker is recorded and mixed at Night Shift Audio.Theme music by Jonathan Grossman.Show art designed by Mory Men.

Lori is back for round two with Lo as the two discuss her journey to becoming a psychotherapist. She left a successful career and made the decision to go to medical school. She followed her passion and started a new chapter later in life. Even though Lori is celebrated as an expert when it comes to therapy, relationships, and understanding ourselves, she says her greatest credential is that she too is a card-carrying member of the human race. She's opening up about why her upbringing of “let's pretend we're happy” ultimately drew her to the field of therapy, and detailing how she believes we can make changes to allow the next generation to better talk about our thoughts, feelings, and beliefs – even when they may drastically differ from those of our family.  In today's episode, Lori is also sharing how we can go about finding a therapist that is right for us; just because we had one poor experience doesn't mean we're not built for therapy. It turns out therapy isn't too different from dating - the number one predictor of success in a therapeutic relationship is our relationship to our therapist, so sometimes it can help to date around. Lori and Lo also discuss our relationship to the person we talk to the most in life: ourselves. Lo is all too familiar that sometimes we treat ourselves very differently than we'd treat a loved one or even a stranger, and the two explore how we can change these habits. And of course, Lori is answering Lo's round of rapid-fire questions, which wraps with some words to live by that will take you into the weekend in a place of self-compassion.   Please be sure to rate, follow, review, and send to a friend so we can keep this sh!t show on the road, kings and kweens!

Today's guest might have one of the world's longest waiting lists, but Lo is skipping the line and getting some on-the-mic therapy for both himself and his beloved Lo Lifers! Lori Gottlieb is an incredible psychotherapist, New York Times bestselling author, TED speaker, and co-host of the extremely popular podcast Dear Therapists. When it comes to rewriting our stories and shifting our narratives, Lori is the go-to expert to help her clients, listeners, and readers gain the mindset shift they often desperately need. In this episode, Lo and Lori are opening up and giving advice on everything from navigating differences within our families to leaning into the envy that comes with comparison culture to finding the therapist that is right for you.  Even though she might seem like she's been doing this forever, Lori wasn't always in the therapy field. She actually started her career in entertainment and only shifted to therapy once she realized that real-life stories interested her far more than those on our TV screens. Since then, Lori has been helping clients, readers, and listeners rewrite the faulty narratives we so often tell ourselves when it comes to our relationships, our careers, and our overall lives. How do we not take our baggage into new relationships? How can we speak to our families about hot-button issues? What do we do with our anxious and depressed feelings? Lo is asking Lori questions that the Lo Lifers might not have even known they needed answers to. This extremely informative and eye-opening episode will have you getting excited for your next, or maybe even your first, therapy session.  Please be sure to rate, follow, review, and send to a friend so we can keep this sh!t show on the road, kings and kweens!

Do you know that loneliness kills more people than smoking and obesity? In this episode of HYDRATE, Psychologist Guy Winch takes us deeper into the power of emotional intelligence and why it's intertwined with our physical health. We discuss how to deal with romantic rejection, when loneliness becomes a health risk, and how to raise emotionally intelligent kids. We're evolutionarily wired to survive and procreate, not to seek happiness. So, it takes great effort to establish deep human connections and be vulnerable, but it can be learned! Guy and I share tips on how to rekindle our relationship (romantic or not) with someone, when to end it, and how to heal from its ending. Take note: you can't fix a relationship by yourself. I know that to be true after trying to save a 13-year marriage on my own. How do we survive a heartbreak without losing our self-worth? Guy Winch, Ph.D., is a licensed psychologist, keynote speaker, and author who has published three books, “Emotional First Aid,” “How to Fix A Broken Heart,” and “The Squeaky Wheel,” which have been translated into 27 languages.

Do you have a therapist?   Do you meet up with someone on a regular basis to open up, talk about yourself, and get into the weeds of your emotions? Maybe the ones you can articulate, the ones you can't articulate, the ones you're angry about having, the ones you're confused about having.   I started seeing a therapist about 10 years ago.   After the loss of my marriage and my best friend, it was suggested by my parents that I would benefit from seeing a therapist.   I'm embarrassed to admit I said no. “I don't need a therapist! I don't have problems! That's for people with problems! That's not me!”   Maybe it was the years, decades, generations of stigma and taboos around that word? Therapy. Growing up I never heard about anyone going to therapy except in the context of some desperate, last second attempt to salvage something like a failing marriage at the eleventh hour.   Maybe that's why I'm talking about it today! I'm very lucky to have a therapist. And proud of it too, I'd say. My wife Leslie is, too. We talk openly about going to therapy with our children. So often, so easily, so quickly, people say, ‘I've got to go to workout, I've got to go to the gym, I've got to run on the treadmill.' We're so open about sharing physical self care. But we aren't nearly as open about mental self care. And that conversation only progresses globally if we keep having conversations like the one we're about to have today…   So welcome, welcome, welcome. Great to have you here. Thank you for reading all the way down here! Are you new? Are you a 3 Books virgin? If so, you picked a wonderful chapter to begin with. Chapter 84 with Lori Gottlieb. If you like it, we'd love to have you join our community. 3 Books is by and for book lovers, writers, makers, sellers and librarians. The show is a 100% a labor of love and a piece of art with no ads, no sponsors, no promotions, and no interruptions. We've got deep values like no book guilt, no book shame, the right to sip, the right to dip. We're not about reading as a chore, or as a job, or as homework. We're all about discovering or rediscovering the pure joy of books or deepening the love you already have.   Today I am very excited to share with you a conversation with the one and only Lori Gottlieb.   Do you know Lori Gottlieb?   She's a psychotherapist and author of the New York Times bestseller, Maybe You Should Talk To Someone which has sold well over a million copies. It's even being adapted as a television series. She writes the extremely popular weekly column Dear Therapist in The Atlantic. She contributes regularly to The New York Times, has a very popular TED Talk, shared one of the best stories at The Moth ever, and is a member of the Advisory Council for Bring Change To Mind. Finally, she also hosts her own wonderful podcast called Dear Therapists.   As a therapist who writes about therapy, Lori kicks open the door to conversations we need to have.   We are going to talk about finding a therapist, making adult friends, what you should ask instead of ‘how are you?', how heterosexual women often react to men crying, processing grief, the key ingredient to vulnerability, tennis partners, defining emotions, the voices in our head, the root cause of trauma, why insight is the booby prize of therapy, and, of course, about the wonderful Lori Gottlieb's three most formative books.   Let's turn the page into Chapter 84 now …   What You'll Learn: What is the difference between content and process in therapy? How do people move through their struggles? What makes us human at our core? How can we find ourselves in the stories of others? How much should we share about ourselves on social media? What is the importance of authenticity for a writer? How do therapists use their own humanity to help others? How should we navigate vulnerability in writing?

In her bestselling book Maybe You Should Talk To Someone, author Lori Gottlieb tells the stories of five people in psychotherapy. Four are her own patients and one is Lori herself. A practicing therapist for more than a decade, she took an unusual route to her vocation, working as a television writer and then attending medical school before realizing that her love of storytelling could be combined with helping people in a clinical setting. Since then, she's become celebrated as a writer and as a therapist. Lori spoke with Meghan what's most often misunderstood about therapy, what therapists secretly think of their patients and how to know when it's time to end treatment. She also talked about her work with singles seeking committed partnerships, the pros and cons of dating apps and how having realistic expectations is not the same thing as "settling."    Guest Bio:  Lori Gottlieb is a psychotherapist and author of the New York Times bestseller Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, which is currently being adapted as a television series. In addition to her clinical practice, she writes the "Dear Therapist" advice column for The Atlantic and is co-host of the popular "Dear Therapists" podcast. Her recent TED talk was one of the top ten most watched of the year. Find her at https://lorigottlieb.com.
