Full Description

For four decades, Ellen Bassuk has navigated the worlds of psychiatry, advocacy, and motherhood—shaped by her son Daniel Schoonover's lifelong struggle with mental illness, especially schizophrenia. Between Two Worlds is their deeply personal and captivating memoir, chronicling Daniel's journey through a broken health care system that often fails those who are different, and the consequent parenting challenges.
From early childhood, Daniel's developmental milestones were unusual, leading to hospitalizations and rejections from schools and institutions ill-equipped to see beyond diagnoses. As a single mother and psychiatrist, Bassuk fought to protect her son from a system that prioritized efficiency over humanity, forging an alternative path that allowed Daniel to reclaim his life.
Drawn from hospital and school reports as well as firsthand accounts, Between Two Worlds offers an unflinching look at systems that marginalize the vulnerable. Bassuk calls for a shift in mental health care, emphasizing the power of recovery principles and person-centered approaches to healing that is focused on relationships, empathy, and individual needs.
Close to forty years old, Daniel has found independence, purpose, and community. Their story is a beacon of hope and a call to action—urging transformation from institutionalization to connection, from labels to lived experience, and from stigma to compassion.
