WORDS THAT MEND
​Poetry can open where silence has closed. It can slip past defenses, touch sensation, and remind us that even our deepest wounds can shine.

In this collection, clinical psychologist and poet Harilaos Stefanakis brings together poems born in the therapeutic space and shaped by the universal themes of hope, resilience, and healing. These poems are not abstractions, but companions to the human condition. They were crafted to meet grief, resilience, hope, and the quiet insistence of life pressing forward.
Like kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold infused enamel, these poems honor fracture while transforming it into beauty. Blending the rhythms of hypnosis, the intimacy of therapy, and the music of language, Words that Mend invites readers into a space where pain and possibility meet.

This is a book for anyone seeking words that not only witness suffering but also call forth light, presence, and life-affirming change.
