Giving Birth Doesn't Make You a Mother is inspired by the journey of a therapist with 26 years' experience in various mental health settings with an enormously varied client base, thousands of therapy sessions, and conversations with a countless amount of people, who was miraculously led to the Foster Care System to get the son who was destined to be hers.

The book honestly and profoundly highlights the struggles embedded in the system, the impact of "unconscious" and ill-equipped parenting on children, and the ingredients for parenting in a manner so many clients and patients long for.

Veronica brings forth the needs of not just her son, but all children, with an emphasis on the conscious awareness parents must have to deliver them. Giving Birth Doesn't Make You a Mother is an essential guide for current and future parents to raise awareness about their own blind spots, trauma, childhood wounds, and unfinished business that will hinder their readiness and ability to parent. It can also help existing parents to assess their efficacy at meeting their children's emotional needs, and a create a recipe to build the competence and compassion to heal and transform even the most harrowing trauma and deepest wounds attesting to the healing power of unconditional love.

This book powerfully conveys the deep joy of being a mother and the ultimate gift to give life to another or to breathe life into another with the oxygen that is a mother's unconditional love.
