Yes, Start by looking for the obvious big files
In Finder click Go then Go to Folder and paste in
~/Library
Click on the size column to show the biggest folders like Application Support which contains iOS backups, and Mail and Caches etc. If you need any help removing them come back but as Terence says if the big one is your Mail folder or ios backups then you'll need to decide if you need them.
Could be years of photo heavy messages too

'Other' is just material on your disk that the OS doesn't have a convenient label for. Are you sure that material is not important?
