They don’t get it.
Many of Dr. Joy’s nine million listeners–like so many of us–seek the kind of help that only makes us feel good about feeling bad. Dr. Joy believes that we can do better.

Dr. Joy has spent nearly twenty years listening to and advising thousands of women and men about their frustrations and disappointments. She has diagnosed the ways we get in trouble and stay there. In turn, she has a proven prescription for freedom from our self-defeating patterns of thought and behavior that allows for real progress toward our goals. She calls her plan for emotional health The Nine Fantasies That Will Ruin Your Life and the Eight Realities That Will Save You .

Dr. Joy on Fantasies
“Look, I know you think fantasies are fun, sexy, and cool, whether your dream is of Cinderella or Prince Charming, or that your love will be passionate, available, rich, gorgeous, and lovable. Everybody indulges in fantasies from time to time, but as a lifestyle choice, we’re talking dis-as-ter! Even if these seemingly harmless little devils don’t ruin your life, they can cause a lot of avoidable misery. . . . Fantasies are a distraction from the business of running our lives successfully and realistically. I plan to wrestle these pesky critters to the ground so we can all get on with the pleasure of focused thoughts and energy.”
Dr. Joy on Realities
“We’ve become so used to the idea that the real world is dangerous that reality has gotten a really bad reputation. I’m going to show you that reality is a lot less scary than you’ve been led to believe, and that it is actually potentially helpful, healthy, life-affirming, and the most useful game in town.”
