A Quiet Place to Pause

When Love is Missing
How emotional neglect shapes us, and how healing begins

When Love is Missing

- how emotional neglect shapes our lives - and how healing begins

When Love Is Missing explores the quieter experience of childhood emotional neglect — not only what happened, but what may have been missing: comfort, attunement, encouragement, protection and a steady sense of being known.

Through Jessie’s story, the book looks at how these early absences can shape self-worth, relationships, trust and the nervous system across adult life.

 

Grounded in Gestalt therapy, attachment theory and trauma-informed understanding, it offers a compassionate way to make sense of old patterns and begin relating to yourself with greater awareness, choice and care.

When Love is Missing is in the publishing process.

The launch will be announced in Our News.  You are welcome to subscribe, I'd love you to be the first to know.
