Finding Your Self at the Heartbreak Hotel

Alice Haddon, psychologist with over twenty-five years of clinical experience, and Ruth Field, bestselling self-help author, show us how we can dissect heartbreaks, mine them for strength and live our most empowered life. In these warm, welcoming pages, you will meet women of different cultural backgrounds and ages who successfully picked themselves back up to become more confident than ever through the work that Alice and Ruth are doing at the Heartbreak Hotel--a therapy retreat providing intensive care to the heartbroken. Bursting with compassion, humor, sass, and courage, this book will take you into the actual exercises conducted at the retreat. It will teach you how to: face your deepest hurt without shame or judgment, ask for help and lean on the collective, be kind and forgiving to yourself, and turn your heartbreak into an abundance of love and pride.
