Biografía del autor:

Ligia M. Houben, MA, FT, FAAGC, CPC, ChT, es una pionera en el ámbito del duelo y la pérdida, educadora y autora que ha ayudado a miles de personas a encontrar fortaleza y esperanza a través de su orientación compasiva y métodos únicos. Ligia combina su formación como experta en Tanatología con su experiencia en psicología, gerontología y estudios religiosos para ofrecer un enfoque holístico a la recuperación del duelo.

Es reconocida por “Los 11 Principios de la Transformación®,” un modelo de duelo diseñado para guiar a las personas desde el dolor emocional hasta el crecimiento personal, presentado en su libro Transforma tu pérdida. Una antología de fortaleza y esperanza.

Ligia ha aparecido como experta en duelo en CNN Español, Univisión, NPR y NBC, y su libro Counseling Hispanics through Loss, Grief, and Bereavement se ha convertido en un recurso clave en hospitales y clínicas de salud mental, especialmente para aquellos que trabajan con la comunidad hispana. Su libro más reciente, Déjame Vivir Mi Duelo… de adentro hacia fuera, disponible tanto en formato impreso como en audiolibro, ofrece un enfoque compasivo y culturalmente consciente de la recuperación del duelo para hispanohablantes. El libro se encuentra también disponible en el idioma inglés: Allow Me to Live My Grief…and Heal from the Inside Out.

Con una trayectoria que incluye más de una década enseñando cursos sobre la muerte y el duelo en Kaplan University y Florida International University, Ligia aporta un experiencia académica a su trabajo. También ha liderado seminarios en todo Estados Unidos, ha sido presentadora para PESI y ha realizado más de 50 presentaciones sobre el duelo durante la pandemia de COVID-19 en inglés y en español.

Al lanzar su gira de libros en Miami, la misión de Ligia sigue siendo clara: ofrecer un apoyo transformador, accesible y culturalmente sensible a todos los que experimentan una pérdida. Para más información, visite ligiahouben.com.
