Elizabeth Zelvin – Therapy, Recovery, and Finding Out Whodunit

In a murder mystery, there’s a crime, a victim, an investigation, and a solution. In real life, when emotional problems or addictions become so painful that those who suffer from them are willing to get help and change, a similar process takes place. Psychotherapist and mystery writer Elizabeth Zelvin talks about how adult children of dysfunctional families and alcoholics, codependents, and people with eating disorders take this journey toward emotional health, using both her experiences as a mental health professional and the growth of her fictional characters, recovering alcoholic Bruce Kohler and world-class codependent Barbara, as examples.
