Dr. Lisa Gives a Sh*t

by Lisa Levy

ABOUT THE SHOW: Dr. Lisa has been practicing unlicensed therapy since 2001. She’s worked with over 1,000 clients including artists, comedians, musicians, politicians, writers, actual shrinks, celebrities and complete strangers.In 2001, she added Self-Proclaimed Psychotherapist to her busy schedule as an art director and conceptual artist. As an art project, she conceived and produced a live show where she invited audience volunteers to have a quickie therapy session on a couch on stage with her, making fun of the fact that she had no experience, and showing off her forged diploma.Within a year she had a regular show, Psychotherapy LIVE! and a ton of press to go with it from places like, The New York Times, Time Out New York, The Village Voice and pretty much any NYC paper with a theater section. She started her radio show, Dr. Lisa Gives A Shit in 2015, and before the pandemic, continued to perform therapy live in front of audiences.With her lightning quick read of people and her forthright insights, she can get to the essence of what people are trying to communicate quickly, and her sense of humor keeps everyone out of trouble.Due to her genuine curiosity, thoughtful questioning and quick wit, Dr. Lisa’s guests/patients reveal themselves whether they are planning to or not. It takes either a willingness to divulge or a bit of courage to be on Dr. Lisa’s couch. In Dr. Lisa’s world, everyone can sit for a therapy session and anything can seem like a therapy session.https://listentodrlisa.com/

DLG1620 I Envy Comedian Alison Klemp's Anger Power

59m · Published 10 Jun 00:00
I had an amazing session with Alison and got a sense what it might be like both good and bad to be brought up in a family where people expressed their anger. I wish that I had a small portion of Alison's fearlessness but it can get you arrested too.

DLG1619_Comedian Andrew Ritchie's Mother Wasn't Demanding Enough...

59m · Published 09 Jun 22:57
...But he's proud of her now! I got to flirt with Andrew at the beginning of the show which was fun and found out he like Jewish girls. We get deep after that. As Andrew says to me during the session, "You're getting me to say all sorts of things I would never normally say."

1617DLG_It's TIme for Jim Melloan to Ditch His Dad

59m · Published 20 May 04:47
Fellow Radio Free Brooklyn. Host, Jim Melloan is also a writer, musician and actor. Jim's dad has been the opinion columnist for The Wall Street Journal, so the idea of "dad is right" has special meaning for him (of course!) Jim has been generous with staying with his dad, but naturally, it's time to move on. Jim hosts an amazing show of chart-topping hits from 50 years ago—"50 Years Ago This Week," Listen here: http://radiofreebrooklyn.com/show/50-years-ago-this-week/ #music #psychotherapy #comedy

DLG1615_Performer Kalan Sherrod is Oddly Fearless.

59m · Published 26 Apr 23:11
http://bedfordandbowery.com/2016/04/kalan-sherrard-beat-up-trump/# Kalan is more well known as enormous face the guy dressed as Trump who gives people a foam bat and charges them to hit him. We discover that Kalan is unique in his fearlessness. Like by demonstrating in his teens that he could hitchhike to Patagonia, his folks realized that he was a very capable young man and could manage his freedom. Kalan's childhood is not like anyone's I've ever heard of which explains how he's capable of living his "weird" (my judgement!) lifestyle. Kaylan's website: http://www.enormousface.com/

DLG1614_From artist Shawn Gallagher, I learn a lot about the power of single Moms.

59m · Published 19 Apr 01:22
Message body Shawn Gallagher is a talented artist with a really good job as well as being highly functional and pretty brilliant. I wanted to know why Shawn was so enthusiastic about being on the show but so "lazy" (resistant!) about about promomting his work. Shawn is living proof that you can be brought up by a single mom, not really know your dad and still feel loved and ok with the world. Shawn told me after this session there was a lot of stuff his friends and family didn't know about him. https://vimeo.com/user9596054 #art #singlemom #psychotherapy #comedy

DLG1613_ Photographer Artist Meryl Meisler talks about what happened...

37m · Published 17 Apr 01:15
I've know Meryl a long time now, but I've never gotten this close. I see how her early years in NYC and then her long term relationship with her now wife and family support has sustained her over the years. It's inspiring to hear how Meryl's life has turned into the recent acclaim that it has finally received now. Time Magazine includes Meryl Meisler on their list of the greatest unsung female photographers of the past century. http://www.merylmeisler.com/

1609DLG_Deryck Todd, Party Instigator Artist and Designer + J.Keith van Stratten, Comedian/Writer/from LA Visitor

59m · Published 15 Mar 05:25
Deryck is a different animal than I usually have on-AMAZING social skills! Here's a guy who's famous for his hat design collections-Miley Cyrus wore one when she hosted SNL, as well as hosting a weekly party, Strut, that celebrities like Paris Hilton mix with regular folks. Plus, he's also creator of the annual Bowie Ball. I drill down to find what makes Deyck so gifted with people. Introducing people and putting them together is an art for him. J.Keith van Stratten, visiting here from LA comes in at the end and is VERY funny. http://www.derycktodd.com/ http://www.nextmagazine.com/content/how-david-bowie-made-it-cooler-be-you J.Keith van Stratten http://www.jkeith.net/

1608DLG_Lucia Rollow: Bushwick Community Darkroom Founder + Photographer

59m · Published 09 Mar 02:20
Dad. Domestic Violence. Prison. Lucia is a warrior and create soul. She's not the first person, I've ever spoken to about the residual effects of being exposed to domestic violence as a child, but I have not had a frank conversation with a woman from this background in terms of where she is in her relationships with men and dating EVER. Thanks to Lucia, I think we can all recognize a part of ourselves in her journey and be inspired by how she's kicking ass. http://www.luciarollow.com/home.html http://www.bushwickcommunitydarkroom.com/ #art #photography #dating
