It is a therapeutic tool for clinicians to work with children in the therapy room to help normalize and validate their feelings. It can be used by the clinician to facilitate engagement of parents in the treatment process. Guided by the clinician, parents can take this book home and use it with his/her child when he/she is in distress due to traumatic reminders of the event. My book supports children who experienced chronic, complex and generational trauma in unique ways to normalize and validate their feelings. It provides a therapeutic tool to clinicians to engage with the child while doing the trauma work in the therapy room. This book is for children who unfortunately experienced diverse types of trauma and as a result, they developed maladaptive emotional and behavioral reactions. In some cases, the child demonstrates extreme avoidance to address the traumatic experience. Therefore, this book will support the therapeutic alliance between the therapist and the child by validated their feelings and providing an understanding that the trauma does not define the child. This book will benefit the child by starting the therapeutic work to restore the child's well-being. Furthermore, this book facilitates the therapist in recovering the child's inner strength, hope and optimism for the future. Hello Day! is based on cognitive-behavioral principles used widely by many therapists. Another therapeutic approach applied in this book is based on Humanistic principles. They emphasize the active listening without judgment to the child's comments and accept and contain them. CBT has been demonstrated in EBP as an effective and safe treatment modality to reduce trauma symptoms. This book facilitates the inclusion and engagement of parents or caregivers in the treatment process. It is available in both Spanish and English.

Growing up, Lieve was exposed to a lot of art, thanks to her art-loving parents. Visiting galleries and museums was the family's favorite pastime. As long as she can remember Lieve wanted to become a visual artist herself, too. She wanted to ""tell stories with visuals"". However, after graduating Summa Cum Laude from the Royal Art Academy in Antwerp, Belgium, Lieve became interested in graphic design. Soon she let go of her traditional oil paints and enrolled in Amsterdam's Graphic Design Academy. After graduation, she landed a graphic design job at a publishing house in Amsterdam. In 2006 love moved her to the USA, to Portland, Oregon. The move to her new country gave Lieve the drive to start her graphic design studio Bright Light Graphics, where she offers book design and brand identity design services. Bright Light Graphics -now located in Bend, Oregon- specializes in visual storytelling, and helps authors tell their story through visual design and illustration."
