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.

York Times bestselling 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 therapists 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 cant 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.
