1 afternoon, Lori Gottlieb is a therapist that assists patients within her Los Angeles clinic. Next, a catastrophe induces her entire world to come crashing downagain. Input Wendell, the unique but experienced therapist in my office she unexpectedly lands. Yet he’ll prove to be anything but.

Since Gottlieb investigates the internal chambers of her patients’ lifestyles — a self-absorbed Hollywood producer, a young newlywed diagnosed with a terminal disease, a senior citizen threatening to finish her own life on her birthday when nothing becomes better, along with a twenty-something who can not quit hooking up with the wrong men — she discovers that the questions they’re struggling with are the very ones she’s currently bringing to Wendell.

With startling wisdom and comedy, Gottlieb invites us in to her world as both clinician and patient, analyzing the truths and fictions we tell ourselves and other people as we teeter on the tightrope between love and want, significance and mortality, guilt and salvation, dread and courage, hope and change.
