Who Is GirlShrink?

Ranked #3,790 in Relationships & Family, #425,643 overall

Get to know a little about me, my website, and why I call myself GirlShrink!

Now and then I run across people who have heard of GirlShrink around the web, but have no idea who or what GirlShrink is. So I thought I would briefly explain who I am and what I do on the web--you know, just in case you were interested:)

 

GirlShrink - The Therapist

My Quick Bio...

Lisa Angelettie, M.S.W.,"GirlShrink" is a psychotherapist, professional coach, and author clinically trained (New York University; The Institute For Life Coach Training) and based in the New York City Tri-state area.

Lisa is the Founder and Director of www.GirlShrink.com, a site which provides expert advice and counseling on relationship, mental health, and other life issues for women, and is currently the #1 site for Advice & Counseling on the web according to Google, Yahoo, and MSN.

She is also the author of "Relationship 911! Seven Steps for Saving Your Relationship" and has created a free relationship course for people ready to stand up for their relationships and save them!

Lisa also co-authored the book "101 Ways To Improve Your Life - Vol.2" along with John Gray, Jack Canfield, Richard Carlson, & Bob Proctor, & many other experts.

Lisa also served as the Mental Health and Depression Editor at the online community for women--Bellaonline.com, where she passionately wrote about depression and other mental health issues since 2004.

GirlShrink - The Woman

Lisa AngelettieI am the wife of a wildly busy music producer (Deric), and the mother of three young daughters: Autumn, Ali & Ava and a dog named Pepperz:)

I thought about creating GirlShrink after staying home with my first daughter Autumn. Not that she wasn't a gem - she was:) But I knew that I wanted to attempt to have a more "Balanced Life" which included work and motherhood. Somehow I knew that that wouldn't include getting up and going to "the city" everyday while my baby stayed home with a nanny. Not for me.

That's when I decided to combine my passion for writing and psychotherapy and outlined my first plan for GirlShrink.com - which has since evolved:)

My favorite things to do are writing, reading, listening to my ipod, going out to eat, watching movies, traveling, hanging out with my family, and yapping on the phone with my girlfriends.

My favorite things are fall ("the season"- hence the firstborn's name is Autumn:), the beach, designer handbags (I have a problem:), precious stone jewelry (like turquoise or topaz), and classic rock.

Things I don't like include the color blue, liars, the price of gas, and replica handbags. Yuck!

Self-Improvement Reading

It's important that you supplement your self-growth with reading. You can always learn something new from a book, and I like to read a few chapters before bed to relax. Take a look and pick something that sounds interesting...

Relationship Movies

Every now and then a good movie (no matter what genre) will get me thinking about a relationship in my life. And then sometimes there are just those movies that I have to put in my collection so that I can revisit them and think about that time of my life. I love to reflect:)
