My talk uses memoir as a way to understand how patients experience therapy. Drawing from diverse sources, I argue that some memoirists see therapy as transformative, but others areequivocal or even negative. I also reflect upon how our beliefs about therapy have changed from the post-war era to today. The memoirists whom I address are Lucy Freeman, Rachel Reiland,Alison Bechdel, Melissa Febos, Hua Hsu, and Stephanie Foo.
