About this listen

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER · INSTANT INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

From Dr. Nicole LePera, creator of ""the holistic psychologist""—the online phenomenon with more than two million Instagram followers—comes a revolutionary approach to healing that harnesses the power of the self to produce lasting change.

As a clinical psychologist, Dr. Nicole LePera often found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients—and for herself—she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical and spiritual wellness that equips people with the interdisciplinary tools necessary to heal themselves. After experiencing the life-changing results herself, she began to share what she’d learned with others—and soon “The Holistic Psychologist” was born.

Now, Dr. LePera is ready to share her much-requested protocol with the world. In How to Do the Work, she offers both a manifesto for SelfHealing as well as an essential guide to creating a more vibrant, authentic, and joyful life. Drawing on the latest research from a diversity of scientific fields and healing modalities, Dr. LePera helps us recognize how adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, resulting in whole body dysfunction—activating harmful stress responses that keep us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviors can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, and unwell.

In How to Do the Work, Dr. LePera offers readers the support and tools that will allow them to break free from destructive behaviors to reclaim and recreate their lives. Nothing short of a paradigm shift, this is a celebration of empowerment that will forever change the way we approach mental wellness and self-care.

This book has completely changed my life. It gave me so much perspective on why I do things I do, helped me to understand others and show compassion towards them rather than judgement.

Only downfall was I could t stand the voice of the girl reading the book. But get past it - it’s worth it.

I truly believe that before anybody picks up a popular title on the self help shelf, this book truly must be read first. It has laid the foundation for pretty much all other book to stem off of. Incredibly well written with personal experiences for evidence. It’s also so authentic and raw and immensely well thought out. Well done love this author.

A foundational book to understand the self

This book has been on my list for the longest time. I finally had the opportunity to absorb Dr. Nicole's wisdom; it could not have come at a better time in my life. Every chapter felt as if she wrote this specifically for me. If you, too, are healing or considering healing, I highly recommend this phenomenal book.
