Clinical psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Julie Smith (@drjulie) returns with this highly anticipated handbook full of “break in case of emergency” advice for dealing with mental health challenges in the moment they occur.

In this essential guide, Dr. Julie teaches her millions of readers and clients how to navigate life’s toughest occurrences while they’re happening, rather than moments or years after the fact. What if we can learn to harness our emotions and stay present so we can process and choose how to respond to a situation?

Picking up where Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? leaves off, Dr. Julie shares the research-backed concepts and powerful skills we can use to weather our most vulnerable moments. Learn how to move through any situation with grace, including:



  • When it’s hard to be with yourself: facing vulnerability alone, dealing with your inner critic, and handling imposter syndrome.


  • When it’s hard to be with other people: dealing with betrayal and knowing what to do when you (or your parents) got it wrong.


  • When it’s hard to be with your feelings: coping with loneliness, fear, and hopelessness


  • When you’re healing from the past: getting out of a trauma response and learning how to stop ruminating about old events.


  • When you’re looking to the future: preventing making the same mistakes, tackling uncertainty, and finding your path.


Open When teaches each of us to find and listen to the positive voice within when we need it most, and to care for our future selves and our mental health.

Dr. Julie Smith has over ten years’ experience as a clinical psychologist and was the first professional to use TikTok to give insights on therapy. After running her own private practice, Julie launched her TikTok channel with the mission of making top-quality mental health education accessible to all. During the COVID-19 pandemic, her audience grew astronomically to 3 million followers as users related to the bite-size self-help videos she was sharing and put her advice into practice. Those videos have clocked up around half a billion views across platforms. Julie has appeared in two BBC films. She has also appeared on CBBC, Good Morning Britain, BBC Breakfast, and CNN International and is the BBC Radio 1 Life Hacks psychologist. She has been featured by Women’s Health, Buzzfeed, The Telegraph, The Times, The Sunday Mail, Glamour, CNN and more. She was also named by TikTok in the top 100 creators. She lives in Hampshire, England, with her husband and three children.
