This book was kinda slow in the beginning, but then it picked up about half way through. I enjoyed the twists and ending. This is not my favorite book of hers, but I still liked it and will read more of her books!
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC!

I received an arc copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. I almost gave up on this book several times but the only reason why I kept going was because I normally enjoy books by this author. This was definitely not a favorite. I really didn't care for any of the characters and the book did not pick up at all until about 75 percent. There were a few twists but I also felt like the ending was rushed after the book dragged on for so long. I will definitely try another book by this author but this one was not for me.

I was given a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I have read almost all of Nicole Trope’s books, and I have to say this is my favorite this far. I am a therapist and had high hopes going into this that the therapist, Lana, would be portrayed in a realistic way. She met all of my expectations! This book has so many twists, it will make your head spin (in the best way). I highly, highly recommend this book and author!

Okay wow just WOW!!! this book took me on a ride I did not see coming! The Therapist is packed with twists and turns that had me second-guessing everyone and everything. Just when I thought I had things figured out… plot twist! The storyline wasn’t what I expected at all (in the best way), and it kept me flipping pages late into the night. I will say, the ending left me wanting a bit more closure—like, I needed just one more chapter to feel satisfied. But overall, this was such a good psychological thriller and I’d totally recommend it if you’re into mind games and suspense-filled reads!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Twisty psychological thriller that had me guessing right up until the end… I stayed up wayyyy past my bedtime to find out who was lying. Loved it. I’m off to read more by @nicoletropeauthor

This book was much slower than I thought it would be. I realized that***** was involved quite early on, but didn't realistic plans at the end. I expected there to be more suspense and energy.

Yet again, this author delivers an intriguing yet thrilling read.
I was hooked from the first page right till the end.
The characters were wonderfully written and I loved the storyline.
This was a really entertaining read. I really enjoyed it. You will certainly be kept entertained throughout.
'The Therapist' had a really unique plot, plenty of twists and turns and the ending left me completely shocked.
It is a really fast paced read and I flew through it in a couple of sittings.
Loved everything about this book and highly recommend reading it.

Loved this book. Really good plot and characters
Highly recommend to any thriller lovers
Thanks Netgalley for letting me read this book for an honest review

Twists and turns make this thriller difficult to put down. While I had my suspicions early on, the author does a great job of throwing in many possibilities to keep the reader guessing. I wasn’t ready for the ending twists!

As a therapist takes on a client, against her better judgement, she gets embroiled in a disturbing situation she did not foresee. Will she be able to get out of it unharmed?

The book is well written and flows nicely even though it is written in multiple perspectives. It is my first by this author and won’t be my last. I’d love to hear it as an audiobook!

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the arc.

The Therapist was a rollercoaster of lies, deceit, and an unreliable narrator who may or may not be a victim.

Lana is a great psychologist. She is a devoted mother to Iggy and is still recovering from a divorce. Lana has a lot of self-doubt , low self-esteem, and worries a lot. So when Ben, the other psychologist, asks her to take over a client who is becoming too emotionally attached to him and is developing mutual feelings, Lana accepts. Sandy really puts on a show for Lana. Though Lana picks up on Sandy's lies and creative storytelling, she still ends up wrapped up in Sandy's drama. And it turns deadly.

My first Nicole Trope book, and I am hooked!

Thank you, Netgalley and Bookouture, for this thrilling ARC. All opinions are entirely my own.

Although I generally enjoy Nicole Trope's work, this particular thriller did not resonate with me.
Every character is toxic, deeply flawed and morally ambiguous, contributing to a narrative that's unsettling.
The story revolves around a group of individuals whose lives are interconnected through deceit, betrayal and personal vendettas.
While the lack of a single likable character made me cringe, it serves the story well, emphasizing the darker sides of human personalities.
Thank you to the publisher/author for the opportunity to read this complimentary advanced copy. Opinions expressed in this review are my own.

Nicola Trope always delivers a good interesting and different read and ‘The Therapist’ again does this, with bells on

We meet Lana, a therapist who against her better judgement takes on fellow therapist Ben’s client Sandy who is in despair at her life

Lana however, even with her bad feeling has no idea just who she has taken on and the ensuing disruption and chaos she is going to bring to her life

It gave an enlightening look into the work and mind of a therapist and also her clients and we get to see just how devious people can be when they have a goal they desire

Addictive writing as always by this author made it a full on quick read where your mind is changing that quick with the events happening you may well need to book an appointment with Lana after reading it 🤗

It was slow-paced with a few interesting moments, but it never really built up the suspense I was hoping for. The ending was fine. Good for fans of psychological dramas, but not her best book. The book didnt hold my attention very well .I will read more of her books.

I've read a few other books from this author and she's becoming one of my favorite authors! All her books are fast paced, twisty and easy to follow. This one was no exception and I loved it! This one is told in multiple POVs. Each character is unreliable and you're not sure who to trust. All the twists in this one kept me wanting to read more and I loved the ending!

3.5 stars rounded up.

Overall, I liked this book. It was fairly twisty and a fast-paced read. I enjoyed the unique storyline and thought it was pretty spot on for a domestic thriller. My two main gripes: 1) at times, the writing was pretty juvenile and 2) I figured out one of the "shady" characters was up to no good way too early in the book- thus, that part was a bit predictable. I'm not mad I read it, there are just a few things I would have changed.

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for an ARC of this novel.

Wow, what can I say!!!! This story is absolutely brilliant. I was on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. Huge 5 stars.

Thank you Bookouture for a copy on Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
The Therapist is the newest from home grown psychological thriller author Nicole Trope.
I’ve been a dedicated fan of Nicole’s for quite a while now and the skilled writer continues with a great book.
Divorced Lana is a successful therapist with a young son, Iggy.
After her colleague asks her to take on one of his clients, Lana is hesitant.
A scene at the office changes her mind.
New patient Sandy is in an uncomfortable marriage and she needs to expose her husband.
Then someone goes missing, someone’s lying and someone is ultimately in jeopardy……
I really enjoyed this book, it has all the essence for a successful read.
There’s the clever plot, the suspicious characters and the thrilling atmosphere.
I did work it out very early on and I stuck to my gut feeling and I was right.
I was still very keen to see it all come together or should I say fall apart.
Another satisfying novel from a talented storyteller.

What a gripping book. Clever and complex with just the right amount of twists and turns. Will look out for this author in the future.

Lana is a therapist. She is a successful therapist. When one of her co-workers, a therapist named Ben asks her if she can take in a patient, Lana reluctantly agrees. The patient is Sandy who doesn't seem to be happy with her marriage. Sandy tells her therapist that she is abused by her husband Mike and that she was scared of him. Lana offers to help her but Sandy agrees to meet her. But the next day, Sandy fails to show up in her appointment and Lana knew that something terrible happened to Sandy.

The story is told in the POVs of Lana, Mike and Sandy. I liked reading Nicole Trope's stories but this book in my opinion wasn't really her best. Though the pacing was great and there are some twists and turns, I feel I am not really into the whole story line. It was very predictable in my opinion and even the ending was kind of predictable as well. Trope's novels usually gives WTH moments in most of her thriller books but here I feel like it was all predictable and sightly boring in my opinion. This book could have been better in my opinion. However, the writing was great and intriguing.

Overall, I give this book 3.5 stars.

Many thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the ARC. The review is based on my honest opinion only.

Nicole has done it again, an outstanding story which had me captivated from page one right through to the end. What a corker of a story and so very well written.

The story was very cleverly done, plenty of grasping, shocking moments and nail biting moments wondering what is going to happen next. You literally did not know who to trust, who really was the victim in this story. I tell you it was just brilliant, plus a few twists and turns along the way, although I did guess one of those twists come the end but it didn’t spoil my enjoyment at all.

I’m already looking forward to seeing what this authors wrote next, her stories really are just outstanding.
