Lori Gottlieb on How to Get the Most Out of Therapy

Therapy is not a competition. You can’t defeat other clients or
come in first place. Still, there is such a thing as getting
better at going to therapy. There are ways to get the most out of
that valuable hour or so you get with a professional. And for
that, we turn to professional therapist, author, and podcaster
Lori Gottlieb, who offers some plain-spoken advice on building a
great relationship, not expecting the depictions you see in
movies and on television, and why people generally don’t lie down
during sessions.
