About this ebook
A compassionate guide to navigating the complex journey of grief, from New York Times bestselling author, therapist, and grief expert Dr. Laura Berman.
AN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVER
Grief doesn’t like to be quiet. It doesn’t care for euphemisms, small talk, or polite avoidance. It wants to be felt—fully, honestly, and out loud.
In Crying Out Loud, renowned therapist and bestselling author Dr. Laura Berman draws from decades of clinical experience and the devastating loss of her own son to show us that grief is not just pain—it can be a portal. When met directly, it becomes a path of transformation that burns away what is not essential, expands your heart, and connects you more deeply to life and love.
Blending grounded therapeutic tools with spiritual insight, this book helps you:
With simple practices for every level of emotional energy, Crying Out Loud is a wise, healing companion. This is not about “getting over” loss. It’s about moving through it with support, and emerging more whole, more grounded, more empowered, and more deeply connected to the love that continues.
