Author Elaine Mallon knows the magnitude and overwhelming heartbreak of losing parents firsthand. With deep empathy for those who might feel lost, misunderstood, or alone after the death of their mother, Elaine felt compelled to write the compassionate grief recovery guidebook she desperately needed when her own mom unexpectedly died. After her father's passing eight years later, she followed up with a second book about navigating double parental loss and entering this new stage in life as an "adult orphan."
Her first book, Healing After the Loss of Your Mother: A Grief & Comfort Manual—recognized among the Best Grief Books of All Time by BookAuthority— is a heartfelt and practical guidebook for those mourning the loss of their mother and for supporters hoping to help a loved one through grief.
Since its launch in 2018, the acclaimed self-help book has consistently been an Amazon Best Seller in several categories, including Grief & Bereavement, Mental & Spiritual Healing, Love & Loss, and Sociology of Death.
Healing After the Loss of Your Parents: Finding Comfort & Purpose Through This New Life Stage as an Adult Orphan is a natural follow-up to her first book. It's a topic that will one day touch all of us, yet seldom covered in grief literature.
Healing After the Loss of Your Parents is an insightful and empowering grief recovery guidebook that helps readers navigate through the disorienting "natural rite of passage," cope with the profound changes that follow the death of their parents, and learn new ways to rebuild their life after loss.
Both books provide a road map through heartache… toward hope and healing.
In addition to writing, Mallon is a grief support advocate who founded two bereavement groups as companions to each book. In 2016, she established Healing After the Loss of Your Mother – Grief Support (approximately 25,000 members worldwide), and in 2024, formed Healing After the Loss of Your Parents – Grief Support. Both online groups are sacred spaces for those seeking comfort and community through their loss. They are free and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year on Facebook.
She resides in Los Angeles, California.
Healing After the Loss of Your Parents: Finding Comfort & Purpose Through This New Life Stage as an Adult Orphan is a compassionate and insightful grief recovery guidebook that helps readers navigate through grief, cope with the profound changes that follow the death of their parents, empowering them to rebuild their life after loss.
Whether we think we are prepared or not, the passing of our parents ushers in a new stage in life as an "adult orphan." With it often comes a disorienting period of intense loneliness as we confront existential changes to our identity, sense of mortality, family of origin, and life purpose. It also tends to reawaken grief over the loss of our first parent.
This "natural rite of passage" brings a complex layer of grief and adaptation. After their deaths, it's common to feel lost and wonder: "What do I do now?" "Who am I now without them?" "Why do I feel so… untethered?"
When our sense of direction and security in the world is turned upside down, what we need is a compassionate grief sherpa to guide us through.
This heartfelt grief recovery guidebook takes the reader through the challenging journey of loss, offering insight from neuroscientists, psychologists, psychiatrists, licensed counselors, thought leaders, and wisdom teachers to help answer many common questions asked by those in mourning.
Ultimately, the real experts in coping with grief are everyday people who have walked this path before and provide advice and encouragement on how they emerged from their heartache to discover hope and healing.
This comprehensive, step-by-step guidebook is a valuable compass and resource for both the person dealing with this life-altering experience and those seeking practical ways to support a loved one at a time that forever changes them.
If you find yourself at this turning point in life, you are not alone. Let's walk this road together.
