Therapy Cracks Me Up is an insightful and humorous collection of cartoons about psychotherapy. It is created by a psychotherapist who has cartooned her way through a career working with kids, teens, adults and seniors.

Clients baffled by rapidly changing political, social and cultural forces ( Potato Head experiments with gender identity ) and therapists dealing with ever-changing therapeutic modalities, diagnoses ( Diagnosis by Daisy Petal Picking ) and medications are depicted here to enlighten and amuse you. Therapy Cracks Me Up provides a comic perspective on every age, from childhood ( I have attention deficit disorder - I need more attention! ), through teens and young adulthood, married life ( I didn't start the fight - that was a pre-emptive strike! ), middle age and the senior years ( I not only have a bucket list - I have a f*ck-it list ). The whimsical drawings and situations appeal to therapists and clients alike, as well as anyone who has ever read a self-help book or Googled a diagnosis.
