How TV’s favorite couples therapist, Dr. Orna Guralnik, found her interior life through music
Dr. Orna Guralnik broke barriers by bringing actual therapy sessions to millions of viewers through Showtime’s hit docuseries “Couples Therapy” — but her rebellious streak started much earlier.
In this episode, Dr. Guralnik talks about the songs that transformed her into a "real" teenager, the therapist who changed her life, and how music has sparked both connection and conflict in her family. Plus, she draws a surprising line between Kendrick Lamar and Igor Stravinsky—and explains why therapy, like music, is a lifelong process of learning and discovery. Here are her seven songs.
The Beatles - Let It Be
Igor Stravinsky - Rite Of Spring
Lou Reed - Coney Island Baby
Robert Wyatt - A Last Straw
Tuxedomoon - Bonjour Tristesse
Modest Mouse - The Good Times Are Killing Mw
Kendrick Lamar - Sing About Me, I'm Dying Of Thirst
