  • Summary

  • I’m Lori Gottlieb, author of Maybe You Should Talk To Someone. And I’m Guy Winch, author of Emotional First Aid. We’re both advice columnists, TED speakers, and of course therapists in clinical practice who want to bring the lessons of the therapy room outside the therapy room… to all of you. Each week on DEAR THERAPISTS, we invite you to be a fly-on-the-wall in these personal, raw, transformative sessions with everyday people and then hear what happens when we give concrete, actionable advice and have them report back to let us know how things went after the session ended. We’re sharing these real sessions because we believe that everyone can benefit from hearing how people just like them get through their struggles and grow and change. So sit back and come into the therapy room with us… and prepare to learn a lot about yourself in the process.

    Encore: Ep 14 - Libby’s Self-Induced Stress
    Sep 10 2024

    This week, a high school student struggles to manage the pressure to achieve without losing her sense of self. We help her to see that when you have balance in your life, it doesn't make you less productive. It actually makes you function better as a whole, and that this will be even more true as she grows into adulthood.

    Encore: Ep 13 - Maria's Childless Son
    Sep 3 2024

    Hey, Fellow Travelers. Maria doesn't want to interfere in her kids' lives, but when she hears that her son wants to have children but his wife doesn't, she wonders if her son will have regrets later if she doesn't say something now. But what should she say, and how? We help her to see that her fears about her son's lack of a voice in his marriage is something she's familiar with herself, and that acknowledging the unspoken will open the door to a new family dynamic.

    Encore: Ep 12 - Liam's Gender Transition
    Aug 27 2024

    Hey, Fellow Travelers. Liam has just come out to his family as a transgender man and begun hormone replacement therapy. His sister is getting married soon and he promised to be her Maid of Honor, and while he no longer feels comfortable wearing a dress, he also doesn't want to make things awkward for his sister and the rest of the family. We discuss his struggle over his gender expression and help him to see that being true to himself is what will ultimately make everyone most comfortable.

Me Too

I learned so much about myself as I listened to this session.
As I listened, I found myself feeling critical of the traveler and her illusive responses. But, as I continued to listen, I realized that I struggled with many of the same concerns exhibited by the guest. I am also conflict avoidant, and have difficulty repairing a rupture in a relationship. I really appreciated this episode.

My Absolute Fav!

I became a fan of Lori after listening to “maybe you should talk to someone” (if you haven’t listen to it yet, make sure it’s you’re next book!) I felt so incomplete after finishing it, like I had lost a friend. Naturally, I was thrilled when I found that she had a podcast, and man.. it does not disappoint!

I’ve become such a fan of Guy now too. Lori and Guy make wonderful partners, bouncing off of each other like they’ve been doing it for years. Their compassion and wisdom makes for such a healing experience for each traveler and in my experience, the listener too.

They also do a wonderful job selecting diverse “travelers” to talk too, so the lessons and insights never get too old or too repetitive. I’m constantly learning something new about myself in each episode.

I truly love hearing all the stories and it’s also nice to feel solidarity with each traveler. With such raw and complex feelings being discussed, I always walk away feeling a little less alone in the world. I’m truly grateful for everyone who has had the courage to come on and share their stories with us.

Thank you Lori, Guy, and to all the travelers for being my #1 walking pal this past year. I will forever be grateful.
