About this Event

Please join us for our first non-fiction book club session with special guest, author L. Feig Knipe! We will be discussing her new book, Braving Therapy.

We have partnered with Fireside Books in Redwood City as the place to go to pick up our monthly book club selections. They have graciously offered to stock plenty of copies of our book club selections each month to make sure folks are able to pick up a copy. If you haven't been by, it's an excellent little independent book shop.

Braving Therapy: Rape, Buried Trauma, and the Triumphant Journey Over PTSD, is a compelling memoir into the profound journey of healing and self-discovery. From a childhood overshadowed by grief to surviving a harrowing assault, the author's life is a testament to resilience.

Explore the author's courageous path through five years of intensive therapy, navigating PTSD, depression, and anxiety while pursuing a graduate degree in Counselor Education. With insights drawn from her twenty-year career as a School Counselor, she shares practical wisdom on trauma, memory, and the transformative power of therapy.

Linda Feig Knipe retired in 2017 from a career as a high school counselor. She has three Feig sons, two Knipe bonus sons, and ten grandchildren. She comes from a large, close-knit family.

Married to her sweetheart, Bob, until his recent passing, she carries on his legacy of supporting community betterment projects and volunteerism. Knipe is an active Rotarian and church member among other pursuits, and is blessed with many friendships. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from State University of New York at Potsdam and a Master’s Degree and Certificate of Advanced Studies in Counselor Education from SUNY University at Buffalo. She has a published essay in the 2022 women’s anthology, Depression Lied to Me, published by Stephan Neff, M.D.

Knipe is Western New Yorker; much of her writing is done between visits with her grandchildren and family at her cottage on the shores of Lake Ontario. She loves exploring the globe and meeting interesting friends. This is her first book.
