Gretchen Smith asked Lori Gottlieb:

Hi Lori, Your book is well-written, and confirmed that I'm in therapy to find answers to my own self-care through by looking deeper into my mirror. My questions is: Do you think both men and women are more motivated now to seek therapy when they face problems? I'm concerned about our US mental health care system, and what more can be done to reach those in need. Gretchen Smith gretchenoutsidethelines@gmail.com

Lori Gottlieb Hi Gretchen, I talk about some gender differences in therapy in the book. The way that women apologize for their pain (when they cry, for instance) and yet men are really the ones who experience such cultural shame around being vulnerable.
