I began the process of reparenting and it's changed my life."<b>--Dr. Nicole LePera</b>, <i> New York Times</i>-bestselling author of <i>How to Do the Work</i> <p/> "This book is a revelation to those of us whose mothering was short of what we needed. The author sensitively and authoritatively weaves developmental principles into a compassionate understanding of what it means to be under-mothered."--<b>Connie Dawson, PhD, </b> coauthor of <i>Growing Up Again: Parenting Ourselves, Parenting Our Children</i> <p/> "With compassion and sparkling clarity, Jasmin Lee Cori describes the effects of being under-mothered and what it takes to overcome them. Her book will be of great value to new mothers serious about creating a loving environment for their children, adult sons and daughters who want at long last to fill the holes in their hearts, and clinicians interested in understanding and healing the mother wound."--<b>Evelyn Bassoff, PhD, </b> psychotherapist and author of <i>Mothering Ourselves: Help and Healing for Adult Daughters</i> <p/> "Jasmin Lee Cori has done a superb job of describing the importance of childhood attachment needs and the psychological wounds that get inflicted when an emotionally absent mother cannot meet those needs well enough. She has skillfully laid out clear steps wounded adults can take to identify their inner strengths and heal attachment wounds. I wholeheartedly recommend this book for anyone who wishes to understand and heal the wounds that can arise when parented by an emotionally absent mother."--<b>Shirley Jean Schmidt, MA, LPC, </b> author of <i>The Developmental Needs Meeting Strategy: An Ego State Therapy for Healing Adults with Childhood Trauma and Attachment Wounds</i> <p/> "This book effortlessly intertwines neuroscience with clinical acumen in a lovely work of extraordinary depth. In her compelling, heart-rending analysis of the importance of motherhood, Jasmin Lee Cori has created a work as significant as Alice Miller's <i>Prisoners of Childhood</i>. Easily accessible and very useful, it is a must-read for parents-to-be, those in the helping professions, and adults who have been wounded by a negligent parent."--<b>Kate Crowley, OTD, OTR/L, </b> University of Southern California <p/> "With a compassionate and steady voice, Jasmin Lee Cori guides the reader through the difficult terrain faced by adults who have grown up without sufficient emotional mothering. Relying on personal experience and practice as a psychotherapist, she provides insight and tools to help readers overcome the challenges of a painful childhood and to move into the pleasures of living adult life fully."--<b>Kathryn Black, MA, </b> psychotherapist, author of <i>Mothering Without a Map: The Search for the Good Mother Within</i><br>
