Healing Hearts And Minds: A Holistic Approach to Coping Well with Congenital Heart Disease
by Liza Morton and Tracy Livecchi

Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is one of the most common types of birth defect, affecting almost 1 in 100 babies born in the UK. With great advances in surgery and medicine, around eight out of ten people with CHD survive to adulthood. Welcome news, but as with any chronic condition, survival does not mean the issue is cured.

Authors of Healing Hearts and Minds, Liza Morton and Tracy Livecchi, are mental health professionals who have developed a specialty in working with clients who have chronic medical conditions, and they are both themselves living with CHD.

Liza and Tracy wrote Healing Hearts and Minds to give others access to the resources and support they have been looking for their entire adult lives. While their powerful personal stories are woven into the narrative, the book is focused on providing evidence-based coping and self-care skills for adults living with CHD.
