About the book

The stories that
stay with us.
The ways we grow.

Stories. Connection. Possibility.

People are shaped by relationships, experiences, successes, disappointments, and the ways we respond when life does not unfold exactly as expected.

Creating Lions brings together stories and reflections from Brian Lahey, MD that invite readers to consider those experiences—and what they can teach us about ourselves.

At its heart is a perspective that also informs his work in psychiatry: people can continue learning, strengthening relationships, and developing throughout their lives.

Growth & self-understanding

Reflecting on the experiences and patterns that influence who we are and who we want to become.

Relationships & connection

Considering how the people in our lives shape the way we see ourselves and the world.

Resilience & possibility

Remaining open to learning and change through life's challenges and transitions.

Brian Lahey, MD

Psychiatrist at Interpersonal Psychiatry

Dr. Lahey treats patients across the lifespan, with a particular interest in the psychiatric care of men and boys. His approach brings together medical and therapeutic techniques with a focus on each individual's potential for growth.

He completed medical school at St. George's University School of Medicine, followed by psychiatry residency in the Kansas City area and a Child and Adolescent Psychiatry fellowship at the University of Kansas Medical Center.

Healthy, growth-promoting relationships—and the ways people relate to themselves and others—are central to his perspective.
