Conversations about life's biggest challenges.


Bestselling author and psychotherapist Julia Samuel invites us into her therapy room as she talks to both known and unknown voices about events and experiences we will all face - and how we face them.


Therapy Works is full of therapeutic conversations which may contain difficult emotions but can also bring light. Hear what the guests have learnt, have failed to learn and how they’ve grown through the experience.


At the end of each episode, Julia reflects on her session with her two psychotherapist daughters who share their thoughts on the conversation.
