Additionally, as part of her Masters thesis, she wrote Lives Unseen: unacknowledged trauma of non-disordered, competent Adult Children Of Parents with a Severe Mental Illness (ACOPSMI) This open access is available through the link below. On the left side of the page, under the word Download, the thesis appears in blue text. It is 215 pages.
