Across all my work – in the therapy room and on the page – I explore how people live with solidarity and grace amid the world’s accelerating trauma. To be human in this dehumanising age is an art of creative resistance.​

​

My new nonfiction book, Human Again: The Lost Art of Being Alive (March 2027), brings together everything I have learned by listening to people as a psychologist and as a novelist.

​

It is not self-help. It is not smart thinking. It will not ask you to try harder. It invites you to do something far easier: to come home, and be human again.
