For our first book club discussion, we’re joined by Grace Farley, an associate marriage and family therapist in Brentwood, Tennessee, to talk about How to Do the Work by Nicole LePera.

We get into reparenting, trauma, attachment, self-healing, and what LePera means by “holistic” therapy. We share what resonated, what raised questions, and where the book connects with our work as therapists and our lives outside the therapy room.

Plus, we debate the most overrated and underrated Thanksgiving dishes and take a minute to Gas Up the Guest.

This podcast is for conversation and education; it isn’t therapy or a substitute for mental health care.

Welcome to My Therapy Book Club! Tyler and David introduce themselves, explain why two therapists decided starting a book club was a good idea, and give you a taste of what to expect from the show. They also tackle a surprisingly important question: which Halloween candy is wildly overrated—and which deserves more respect? Finally, Tyler reveals the first book they’ll be reading and discussing together.

My Therapy Book Club is coming October 1! Join therapists Tyler and David each month as we read the books everyone’s talking about and have honest, curious—and occasionally ridiculous—conversations about what they get right, what makes us think, and what it all looks like in real life.

Read along, or just come for the conversation.
