Clara Hinton

Clara Hinton is a mom whose life has been blessed beyond measure, but has also been broken into a million pieces. She knows both the unmatched miracle of birth and the deep, unrelenting grief of child loss.

Clara has been writing for more than 25 years, beginning with her first book, Silent Grief, which continues to serve as a daily companion to those suffering the loss of a child.

In her more recent book, Child Loss: The Heartbreak and the Hope, Clara takes a deeper look into the complex, ongoing pain of child loss and walks those grieving the loss of a child through the foggy abyss of grief into a place of learning how to live within the ongoing pain of loss. This book is a reflection of her own heart following the sudden, unexpected loss of her son Mike coupled with the experience of working with grieving parents for over 25 years. The Heartbreak and the Hope sheds new light and insights on the most misunderstood grief of all – the grief of child loss. You will never view child loss the same after reading this book! You will understand that your job is not to fix the broken heart, but rather learn how to rewrite your life story from the deep love that can only be found in brokenness.

With her most recent book, Robbie and the Special Daisies: A Child's Grief Book, Clara has created a fictional story about a boy named Robbie who learns how to manage the grief of losing his little brother. This is her first book in a series of children's grief books.

Clara is a national speaker, certified bereavement facilitator, workshop leader, author, blogger, and grief coach. She has led workshops coast-to-coast over the past 25 years, encouraging thousands of families affected by child loss.
