The Therapist explores forbidden love between a charismatic psychoanalyst and a beautiful patient. It takes us into the glittering salons of Boston society, the world of avant garde New York artists, and the politics of Harvard professorships. It is a story of passion and ambition, but, most of all, it is the story of a woman's awakening to self discovery and finding the courage to follow her dreams.
A page turner on the lives of the rich and the ambitious. We expect to find such astonishing narcissism in bankers, not therapists! Maccoby reminds us that power politics is everywhere. Katie Lee Weille, Ph.D., author of Making Sense of Parenthood
I loved the story. Very engaging. I raced to finish it, trying to guess which track the storyline would take. It is a story not only about the true values that save a personality from harm and illness but make it flourish; at the same time, it is a warning about what happens when people ignore these values or worse, choose the opposite. (The deadly sins are alive and well.) Great story! Father Rick Frechette
