  Agony aunt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An agony aunt whose own personal problems and issues are more bizarre than those of her correspondents.

 Editorial: Not just an agony aunt / Ann Landers changed as America did
The death at 83 of Eppie Lederer, who as Ann Landers dispensed what was often called "no-nonsense" advice to newspaper readers for almost half a century, deprives journalism of a shrewd and sensitive woman who, as the cliche goes, transcended her genre.
