Book Description
The mind is a mysterious thing, even to someone trained in psychology. As forensic psychologist in the town of New Bern, North Carolina, Dr. Trattoria has seen hundreds of patients and interacted with thousands more. Patients come to Dr. Trattoria for help, but there is no easy solution to a problem related to the human condition. This is especially true when he must formulate an answer to a problem that suits someone else. This collection of stories about the varied clientele Dr. Trattoria has treated shows the impressive spectrum of psychological distress humans are capable of enduring. From getting woken up in the middle of the night by a phone call from a stranger threatening to kill his entire family to a new stepfather looking to improve the family dynamics with his teenage stepdaughters, it’s never a dull day for this forensic psychologist. The Ramblings of a Psychologist is part memoir, part mystery novel, part philosophical treatise. Dr. Trattoria considers himself an investigator, solving his patients' conundrums one painful dilemma at a time.
