Feeling better starts with a single message

What type of support are you looking for?

We can show you how we turn your story into an epic memoir

We are a small group of therapists with a background in creative writing and memoir ghostwriting. From experience, we have learned that not only getting a memoir written is therapeutic, but so are subsequent processes of publishing and sharing your story with the world.

How can you begin this process?

You can begin this process through having structured, phone sessions with one of our therapists, that involve interviewing. We pay attention to your word choice, the way you speak, thought processes, etc. This helps us preserve your “voice”. Aside from active listening to channel your vision, we depend heavily on our past experience as a therapist and use cognitive and social empathy to connect with your feelings. Through this,  text content is articulated to create an immersive reading experience.

We all have many stories about our lives and relationships, occurring simultaneously. We all have daily experiences of events that we seek to make meaningful.

In our experience we have found that clients reach an impasse in therapy sessions when they experience difficulty expressing their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

Therapists using memoir therapy assist clients in finding an alternate solution by externalizing oppressive experiences. This facilitates a revised narration of their mal-adaptive perspective, which they have internalized. Using narrative therapy, a counselor works with clients to externalize their oppressive experiences and help them rewrite their life story removed from their problem-saturated perspective.

My book was part memoir, part self-help. I needed a lot of help with the memoir section. Ana worked with me to get create a memoir theme strategy that fitted well with the self-help section. THANK YOU!

It was wonderful to work with Dr. Starns on several projects together. She kept us updated where she was while writing clients' memoirs. Allowing us to finish all book projects involving crowdfunding, ghostwriting, editing, self publishing and marketing several days before the deadline.

It was fantastic to work with Ana, who is an exceptional ghostwriter. Having worked together on multiple books over the years, she has proven herself to be reliable, responsive, and talented. All our authors have been incredibly pleased with her work. I strongly recommend her to any author, agent, or publisher.

I needed to get a memoir written about my grandmother, before she passed away in 2016. Dr. Starns was very helpful. She expedited the whole project and got the book done in less than 90 days. Highly recommendable.
