His best-selling books include Bradshaw On: The Family, Healing the Shame That Binds You, and Homecoming: Reclaiming and Championing Your Inner Child, all of which has launched him into the national television circuit with a series on PBS and appearances on Oprah and Donahue. Between writing books and a monthly column for Lear's magazine, Bradshaw lectures and conducts workshops throughout the United States.
