Helen Bonnick, Consultant, Speaker and Trainer on child to parent violence and abuse
These two amazing women totally have your corner! They've lived this stuff, but they've also researched it, read it, listened, and thought about it endlessly. Their wisdom is matched only by their empathy and their easy style of writing. This is a no-messing-about guide - grounded and earthy. Laughter and tears are both permitted and may well occur, as they lead you to a more hopeful place.
