Where Were You When I Needed You, Dad? A Guide for Healing Your Father Wound is a wonderful, easy-to-read & use, guide for reparenting yourself. I imagine it could be used for one's mom, too.
Excellent resource

As a therapist in private practice, I have used Dr. Drew's book to augment my sessions with clients who struggle with father issues. It has provided clinically sound guidance with sensitivity and care. The structure of the exercises provides a concrete way to access abstract concepts and emotions in a way that is non-threatening. Used in conjunction with therapy, I believe the book has made my interventions more effective and focused. It is a very beneficial and valuable resource for clinicians and clients alike. I highly recommend this book and thank the author for the difference she has made in the lives of so many people through her work.

i absolutely loved this book. having read so many self improvement books, i can honestly say this one is the most well written and relatable of its kind. the excercises are an incredible release and in many ways a cleansing of "father wounds." i cant think of a person/author more qualified in the healing of a father wound than one who has healed and learned to cope with one of her own.
The first book that helped!

I've been through years of Adult Children of Alcoholics, writing groups, private counseling and more. I've read every self-help book there is. This is the FIRST BOOK that dealt perfectly with my love-hate relationship with my Dad. It was so direct and targeted it was scary. And because it is a workbook, you must DO the exercises to get the benefit. And while painful, they were very revealing.My best advice is that you get a counselor/therapist/objective friend to listen to you and make sure you complete all the exercises. This author is a godsend. She has lived through and healed her father wounds

Jane Drew is a brilliant author with great insight into this area. Many of us missed out on having a father who was there when we needed him... in the way that we needed him. This book is about addressing that wound and moving forward. --Frank Boyd
