Laurie Lerner has been putting words on paper and writing since she can remember. The idea of her book grew out of need when she adopted her son who was diagnosed at birth with “special needs.” This was a vehicle to let her soul have a voice and a tangible way to represent her journey. Laurie holds a Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling and is licensed in the State of Florida. She has worked for many years as a Family Therapist. She currently seeks publication of her first book and hopes to become a successful writer. Laurie is a single mother and currently lives in Plantation, Florida with her son, Adam.
