Critics Review

“This well-focused book addresses so well the cataclysmic schism that often fractures the unity of an intact family. Dr. McCoy gives a glimpse into very real family dynamics of broken relationships with poignant clinical scenarios. Her expertise as a family counselor and therapist provides the reader with soothing treatment and practical approaches to understand and move forward to heal and mend these now fragile relationships. The author provides up to-date-research to document current counseling techniques, including research on epigenetics. This book is a must for any parent or adult child who have lost their relationship with each other.” - Charles J. Wibbelsman, M.D., Clinical Professor of Pediatrics, University of California, San Francisco “We Don’t Talk Anymore is a wise, clearly written, and helpful book for parents and adult children who are going through the trauma of estrangement. It is a great contribution to the important, but still relatively new, field of advice for families trying to reckon with this painful topic. I highly recommend it.” - Joshua Coleman, PhD, author of When Parents Hurt “This practical guidebook goes through the most common conflicts between older parents and their adult children and offers the perspective of each side…a great starting place for readers hoping to let go of long-term resentments and improve communication with estranged family members. ” - Publishers Weekly-STARRED“A tender and practical exploration of estrangement for both parents and adult children.” - The Midwest Book Review
