Emotional literacy means being able to recognize what you are feeling so that it enhances rather than interferes with thinking. In this, the second collection of her "Guardian" columns, Susie Orbach again explores what is really going on around and within us. Her belief that we must learn how to validate emotion in public and private life remains the cornerstone of her work.
Susie Orbach is a psychotherapist and writer. She co-founded the Women's Therapy Centre and Antidote, the organisation promoting emotional literacy and is a visiting Professor at the LSE. Her most recent book is THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF SEX.
