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 as one of 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.
Elaine Mallon is an award-winning public relations and marketing veteran who began her professional career in entertainment publicity and later became Vice President, Media & Corporate Relations at 20th Century Fox Television.
She resides in Los Angeles, California.
