Bad Advice

Bad Advice takes aim at the folk wisdom that passes for psychology in everyday life. Venus Nicolino, a psychologist known to many as Dr. V from her time on Bravo, argues that a lot of the mental health tips people trade, repeat and share online do more harm than good.

After picking apart these popular but misleading ideas, the book offers practical strategies for readers who want to move forward and change. The tone is blunt, clever and meant to jolt, written for people who are tired of comforting platitudes and want something they can use.
