REVIEWS
“It is so nice to read such an honest book about the plight of depression. In my readings, I have found that most books focus on only thinking positively and ignore the negative emotions. However, Lee hits the mark by her honesty about all the emotions she was experiencing. Most importantly, she highlights the importance of acknowledging all emotions so that they can be seen and heard. I appreciated her vulnerability and believe this book will be a useful resource.”
Tessa Burns Registered Psychologist and Owner of Serenity Now Wellness Centre
“A Quiet Strong Voice is a compelling piece of vulnerability, revealing the depths of despair, the dangers in depression and the quick sand of suicide intention that can trap even the most beautiful, intelligent and loving individuals.
Lee Horbachewski bravely exposes the truth of her torturous journey through anxiety, fear, depression and multiple suicide attempts. Her intimate description of frantic attempts to end her life suck you into the story, enmeshing your emotions, heart and longing for peace for this fragile woman.
Finding help and hope in family, friends, therapists, God, and two precious little sparrows, proves there is no single answer to the struggle. Hope comes in opening hearts to others, to nature and to our higher power, verifying that we CAN overcome disparaging, self destructive and depressive emotions.”

You will relate to her and her family’s pain and most of all you will understand the journey of recovery and will cheer for her awakening out of the darkness. We all know someone with depression and they deserve our understanding. When you read A Quiet Strong Voice. You will understand.”

“A Quiet Strong Voice speaks honestly and heart-fully to the desperate and seemingly hopeless battle of depression. Lee’s journey is a true story where she serves to illuminate all facets of her TRUTH… the compelling intimate details of her illness and the unconditional love and support that she discovers, even in the most unexpected places, on her path to wellness. Lee’s story serves as a bright light to the countless number of people, their families and loved ones who are dealing with the dark and isolating effects of depression and anxiety.”
Kari Dunlop Founder/Owner of Glinda Girls
“It takes a lot of courage to relieve this very painful time in your family life. But by reliving it and putting it in writing, you are also purging yourself of the insecurities, the self-doubts and sometimes the loathing. I saw emerging a person of ‘beauty’, a person filled with ‘forgiveness’, a person of ‘strength’. God is continually working in your lives. You have been truly blessed.”
My Mother-in- Law
“A Quiet Strong Voice is real, raw and powerful. Lee’s brutal honesty and willingness to ‘tell all’ offers an intense insightful experience into the darkness that is depression, anxiety and attempted suicide. There is a greater awareness and compassion that results when you journey through and share Lee’s experience with each word that she has written. She has found her quiet strong voice; she is brave.”
Jill Ethier Owner/Creator at Unleash Your Greatness
“I have never met someone so honest and open about her depression and attempted suicide. This story touched my heart in many ways and every time an issue came up, I could feel her pain and wanted nothing more than to grab her and take her pain away. Suicide has affected so many people and the person who commits suicide doesn’t realize how devastating it is for everyone around them, and that there is hope. I am so honored and humbled to have Lee in my life and couldn’t imagine life without her! A Quiet Strong Voice is a MUST READ for anyone who has even a whiff of depression or mental health challenges. Lee – you are the bravest woman I know!”

This is a gift to be shared.”
