Reviews

Jeanine Connor, psychodynamic psychotherapist, Therapy Today
Although billed as 'self-help', there is much to be gained for professionals from this clearly written, comprehensive book.
Alberta Gutteridge, Host of the North London Death Cafe
There is so much in the book that I found interesting and relevant to me. The exercises, explained in a way that is easily accessible, can be applied to more than just death anxiety; the information around mental health generally, death anxiety, the causes are presented clearly and calmly. The book is like listening to a sensible friend: quiet, calm and clear-headed. Whether you are concerned that you have a death anxiety, or you know you do, or simply you are concerned that you might not be living life to its fullest, this book is worth exploring.
Dr. Bethan Michael-Fox, The Death Studies Podcast
"Really nicely written, it's clear and accessible ... I think it will be of interest to quite a lot of people ... it's not just a self-help book for if you're worried about death and dying, it's more practical and useful!"
Zoey Mitchell, Anxiety UK Participation Group member, Anxiety UK
I am so glad I reviewed this book as reading it has been transformative. I had no idea death anxiety was its own thing and to find my symptoms and experiences laid out before was an emotional experience. I will be continuing to use this book to help myself live my life freely
