Description
Help and hope for parents navigating the emotional challenges of raising children with special needs. Dr. Rita Eichenstein's guide offers practical solutions to cope with the emotional upheaval, nurture yourself and your child, and build stronger relationships.
This book walks readers through the five stages of acceptance, similar to those experienced during grief, but tailored for parents of special-needs children. With compassion and clarity, Dr. Eichenstein shares vivid anecdotes and suggestions to help you understand your emotional experience, identify relationship wounds, and find joy in embracing your child.
