Your newly diagnosed clients and their families are asking this question. Even clients who have dealt with the diagnosis for decades are looking for wellness focussed resources that can change lives. "Bipolar Disorder—Insights for Recovery" and "Beyond Bipolar—7 Steps to Wellness" are easy to access (some read them while extremely ill in the hospital). They ask and answer the hidden questions that clients and their families need to know to seek recovery. With my books, you get two perspectives—that of a person who has learned to live successfully with bipolar disorder and that of a physician who understands it medically. You can order both books on my website below as well as discover free downloads and other information about bipolar disorder. It's a user friendly site linking to only high quality sites and resources—a good place to start with bipolar disorder. www.BeyondBipolar.com How do you begin with bipolar disorder?

Child abuse is an epidemic that remains in denial by most of our citizens. I wrote THE INVISIBLE GIRL: UNCOVERING REPRESSED MEMORIES OF CHILDHOOD SEXUAL ABUSE for the purpose of raising awareness for the protection of children. It's a personal account of living in the aftermath of childhood abuse with repressed memories for 47 years before the truth surfaced. It includes a 28 page guide for parents and professionals about child abuse, symptoms, identifying offenders, reporting and protecting children. I have worked as an Advance Practice Clinical Nurse Specialist in Psychiatry for nearly 21 years. I am board certified by the National Center for Crisis Management/American Academy of Experts for Traumatic Stress in Acute Stress Management, Post Traumatic Stress, and Sexual Abuse.
