This month on The Therapist's Bookshelf, I'm reading Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl — and it's one of those books that's genuinely hard to summarize because the message hits differently depending on where you are in your own life.

Viktor Frankl was an Austrian psychiatrist who survived Nazi concentration camps and came out the other side more convinced than ever about the human capacity to find meaning — even in suffering. In this episode I share what stood out to me as a therapist, why this book matters for anyone doing healing work, and how the question of "why did this happen to me" can slowly shift into something more livable.

This is not a light read. But it might be exactly what you need.

Next month we're reading Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb — get your copy and read along.

Let's Sit With This is hosted by Kristen Callaway, LMFT — a licensed therapist in Edmond, OK.
