About Loving Her Mind

Are you held captive by your secrets? Are you hiding yours or your loved one’s struggle with mental illness? Loving Her Mind pieces together the shards of hope based on the author’s experience of caring for her mother through which she discovered a stigma-slaying life.

Piecing Together the Shards of Hope

Secrecy and shame entraps the loved ones of those who struggle inside invisible rooms walled by shame, blame, rejection, and isolation. The caregivers struggle, too. This is the story of how one person broke free of the stigma, learned to love her mother, and discovered the ability to love herself.

What They're Saying...
