It's the white space in their family picture, the background rather than the foreground. This will be the first self-help book to bring this invisible force to light, educate people about it, and teach them how to overcome it.

An insatiable need for sex and love. Periods of overeating or starving. A pattern of unstable and painful relationships. Does this sound painfully familiar? Trauma counselor Kelly McDaniel has seen these traits over and over in clients who feel trapped in cycles of harmful behaviors-and are unable to stop. Many of us find ourselves stuck in unhealthy habits simply because we don't see a better way. With Mother Hunger, McDaniel helps women break the cycle of destructive behavior by taking a fresh look at childhood trauma and its lasting impact. In doing so, she destigmatizes the shame that comes with being under-mothered and misdiagnosed. McDaniel offers a healing path with powerful tools that include therapeutic interventions and lifestyle changes in service to healthy relationships. The constant search for mother love can be a lifelong emotional burden, but healing begins with knowing and naming what we are missing. McDaniel is the first clinician to identify Mother Hunger, which demystifies the search for love and provides the compass that each woman needs to end the struggle with achy, lonely emptiness, and come home to herself.

With Mothers Who Can't Love: A Healing Guide for Daughters, Susan Forward, Ph.D., author of the smash #1 bestseller Toxic Parents, offers a powerful look at the devastating impact unloving mothers have on their daughters—and provides clear, effective techniques for overcoming that painful legacy. In more than 35 years as a therapist, Forward has worked with large numbers of women struggling to escape the emotional damage inflicted by the women who raised them.

They doubt their worth, and even their ability to love. Forward examines the Narcissistic Mother, the Competitive Mother, the Overly Enmeshed mother, the Control Freak, Mothers who need Mothering, and mothers who abuse or fail to protect their daughters from abuse. Filled with compelling case histories, Mothers Who Can’t Love outlines the self-help techniques Forward has developed to transform the lives of her clients, showing women how to overcome the pain of childhood and how to act in their own best interests. Warm and compassionate, Mothers Who Can’t Love offers daughters the emotional support and tools they need to heal themselves and rebuild their confidence and self-respect.

Was your mother too busy, too tired, or too checked-out to provide you with the nurturing you needed as a child? Men and women who were “undermothered” as children often struggle with intimate relationships, in part because of their unmet need for maternal care. The Emotionally Absent Mother will help you understand what was missing from your childhood, how this relates to your mother’s own history, and how you can fill the “mother gap” by: Examining the past with compassion for yourself and your mother Finding the child inside of you and learning to mother yourself Opening to the archetype of the Good Mother Allowing friends and loved ones to provide support, guidance, and other elements of good mothering that you missed Through reflections, exercises, and clear explanations, psychotherapist Jasmin Lee Cori helps adult sons and daughters heal the wounds left by mothers who failed to provide the essential ingredients that every child needs. She traces perceived personal “defects” back to mothering deficits, relieving self-blame. And, by teaching today’s undermothered adults to cultivate the mothering they missed, she helps them secure a happier future—for themselves and their children.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Emotional abandonment is when a parent does not provide the emotional nurturing a child needs. It is common for people to assume that such a loss will affect the adult child’s life, but they rarely understand the impact emotional abandonment has on the present. #2 Emotionally absent mothers often expect their children to take care of them in some way. They might have relied on you for their emotional and physical well-being, and they might have demanded that you take care of younger siblings when you were actually too young for such a responsibility. #3 When you have been raised by an emotionally absent mother, you are really struggling with fear of abandonment. As a child, you needed your mother to develop a positive self-image, but she did not pay attention to you or spend any significant time with you. #4 To heal the scars from your childhood, you must first understand why it happened. You must recognize that the problem was never about you, but about your mother’s own issues.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The tree of life is a natural symbol for mothering. With its fruits and flowers, with birds and animals in and around it, it provides both shelter and supply. It is like a fountain of abundance. #2 We are made of our mothers, and we are shaped by them. The way we see ourselves and our sense of self-esteem are heavily influenced by our mother. She is not the only influence on us, but she and our interactions with her provide the basic building materials for all of these things. #3 The term mother can refer to any adult who takes on a caring, nurturing, and protective role in your life. This can include an adoptive mother, grandmother, or stepmother; even the right father can fill these shoes. #4 The good-enough mother is the one who provides enough for a child to have a good start in life. She is not always going to be perfect, but she must know how to make things right when she misses.
