Maybe you should talk to someone, by Lori Gottlieb

 

This was a really interesting book in which the author Lori Gottlieb, a therapist, writes about her own need for therapy when she experienced a loss. Gottlieb interweaves her own story with the experiences of a half dozen or so of her patients. Often she demonstrates that what they're experiencing is something that she also encounters in her own therapy sessions, and it's interesting to see her recognize and deal with those situations herself. It's really well written and a fast read. It also serves to take the mystery out of what therapy entails, and I would guess that a lot of people would consider therapy for themself after they read the book.
