Reviews

“Liz Kelly’s This Book Is Cheaper Than Therapy is an engaging and accessible new book helping bridge the gap between peoples’ mental health needs and the prospect of engaging direct (often hard-to-find and/ or expensive) psychotherapy services. With wit and wisdom, Liz not only guides people toward a better understanding of mental health services but also gives them a sampling of techniques readers can find beneficial before ever stepping in a therapist’s office.”

―Mitch Abblett, PhD, private practice psychologist and author of Nautilus Gold-winning Prizeworthy, as well as The Five Hurdles to Happiness

“Save your copay and go buy this book! Liz’s advice is so smart, sassy, and substantial, you’ll almost be glad you didn’t find that therapist anyway. She may run me out of a job, but I couldn’t be happier. Liz is going to change your life and have you laughing all the way to your best self.”

―Michael Alcée, PhD, author of Therapeutic Improvisation: How to Stop Winging It and Own It as a Therapist

“Liz Kelly’s page-turning book reads like an illuminating and nourishing conversation with a supportive friend―who also happens to have a sparkling sense of humor. This text may be cheaper than therapy, but it’s chock-full of invaluable insights. With great ease, Kelly links ideas from various schools of psychotherapy to accessible practices you can apply to your everyday life. Whether or not you’re able to pursue formal therapy, Liz Kelly’s words, both highly informed and entertaining, will empower you to embark on a journey of effective, holistic self-care.”

―Mark O’Connell, LCSW-R, author of The Performing Art of Therapy: Acting Insights and Techniques for Clinicians

“Liz Kelly has packed a substantial collection of powerful mental health tools and strategies into a readable and relatable manual. Readers will feel like they are interacting with a good friend who also happens to be an excellent therapist. Applying these tools will undoubtedly improve mental health and quality of life.”

―Britt H. Rathbone, LCSW-C, co-author of What Works With Teens,

Parenting a Teen Who Has Intense Emotions, and other publications
