Suzanne Garfinkle-Crowell M.D.
À propos de cet audio
ADHD. OCD. Toxic. Unwell.
Over the past decade, psychiatrist Suzanne Garfinkle-Crowell noticed that girls were coming to her office with an increasingly long list of psychiatric diagnoses, often pulled from the internet and social media. It seemed like it was becoming impossible for young women to talk about their feelings without using "therapy speak" or connecting them to mental illnesses. At the same time, she saw parents responding to this jargon with either alarm or dismissiveness, both of which only broadened the communication gap with their daughters.
In Girlhood, Translated, Dr. Garfinkle-Crowell explores how ‘therapy speak’ is fundamentally reshaping the identities of girls and young women. While some terms (“emotional labor,” “weaponized incompetence,” and even "gaslighting") have helped girls name problems and find common ground, many inadvertently play into the age-old cliché that teenage girls are “hysterical” and “crazy.” Girls are—rightly, desperately—asking for healing and connection, but in a language that often does not get them either.
Through vibrant, moving stories from the therapy room, Dr. Garfinkle-Crowell helps us see why girls have been driven to rely on this lexicon in order to be heard--and teaches us to listen better. Girlhood, Translated shows us how a girl can evolve from damaged object to empowered subject. This book will change the conversation about mental health to one that promotes agency and connection, urging girls not only to heal, but to thrive.
Ce que les critiques en disent
“Understanding girls today is impossible without seeing the culture that shapes them. ‘Therapy speak’ has puzzled parents (me included)—and the impulse to dismiss or overreact is real. Dr. Garfinkle-Crowell explains what it means, why it’s happening, and—importantly—how to respond with nuance and care. She brings seasoned medical guidance, keen cultural insight, and a deep reverence for the girls she treats. This is a voice you can trust and a resource you will rely on throughout your daughter’s young adulthood.”—Rachel Simmons, New York Times bestselling author of Odd Girl Out
“This fine book by an excellent therapist and writer offers readers a deep understanding of the internal and external problems of girls today. Garfinkle-Crowell takes on the current issue of diagnosis as identity and, with vivid examples, unpacks old problems and new. Best of all, she gives us ideas of how to help girls explore who they truly are and learn to tell their stories with their own true voices. I recommend this book to all who have contact with teenage girls.”—Mary Pipher, New York Times bestselling author of Reviving Ophelia and Women Rowing North
“Smart, compassionate, and bracingly clear, Girlhood, Translated distrusts quick labels while honoring real suffering. It gives parents, teachers, clinicians—and girls themselves—language more spacious than diagnosis. This is the book I want in every home and staff room: case stories with a novelist’s eye, a scientist’s care, and a translator’s ear.”—Peter Fonagy, PhD, award-winning coauthor of Affect Regulation, Mentalization, and the Development of the Self
“Girlhood, Translated zaps into focus something you have both known and not known all along. Garfinkle-Crowell writes with respect and care about the complexities girls face, even as she dissects how ‘therapy speak’ undermines the ability to effectively address them. In both insight and action, this book is absolutely indispensable for anyone raising or working with teen girls.”—Peggy Orenstein, New York Times bestselling author of Girls & Sex
“This is a phenomenal, brilliant book, written in a voice that is a delightful trio of funny, wise, and compassionate. It is essential reading for anyone who works with or cares about girls. Suzanne Garfinkle-Crowell is in the pantheon of Carol Gilligan, Mary Pipher, and Lisa Damour.”—Catherine Steiner-Adair, EdD, author of The Big Disconnect
