Veteran journalist Joe Nocera’s neighbor in the Hamptons was a therapist named Ike. Ike counted celebrities and Manhattan elites as his patients. He’d host star-studded parties at his eccentric vacation house. But one summer, Joe discovered that Ike was gone and everything he’d thought he’d known about his neighbor -- and the house next door -- was wrong. From Wondery, the company behind Dirty John and Dr. Death, and Bloomberg, “The Shrink Next Door” is a story about power, control and turning to the wrong person for help for three decades. Written and hosted by Joe Nocera, a columnist for Bloomberg.

Customer Reviews
Interesting
Wow an interesting podcast. I really loved Joes story telling. Couldn’t stop listening. I binge listened! I feel that this is probably not an isolated case of when a medical professional takes advantage of a vulnerable patient. Must be really hard for the patient to realise that they are being taken advantage of as they view the relationship in a more positive light. They don’t see that they are a victim.
Essential Precautionary Tale
So interesting. Marty’s interviews are hilarious. Great investigation. Very personal. Actually quite emotional at times. But an essential precautionary tale when dealing with narcissists
Fascinating
Great investigation into power, control and exploitation
