About Hearthaven Publishing

LDS 12 STEP RECOVERY MATERIALS

The Mission of Hearthaven Publishing

The mission of Hearthaven Publishing (formerly known as Windhaven Publishing) is to produce recovery literature for the Latter-day Saint community.

We believe that the path to recovery from addictions of all types is through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Through the grace of Jesus Christ, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as well as many others outside the Church, are finding relief from the bondage of addiction, whether to drugs, alcohol, pornography, overspending, overeating or many other addictive behaviors.

Hearthaven Publishing is solely owned by Phil and Colleen Harrison. This company operated under the name Windhaven Publishing for nearly 20 years. The name was changed to Hearthaven Publishing in 2012, but the goals and mission remain the same.

A Little About Colleen and Phil

Colleen and Phil Harrison

Colleen holds a BA and MA in English from Brigham Young University. She has also completed training for certification as an Addictions Counselor from the University of Utah, and all of the course work for a PhD in Family and Human Development form Utah State University.

Colleen has been a presenter at BYU Education Weeks several times, both at BYU-Idaho and BYU-Provo. She has presented at Relief Society Women’s conferences in both the US and in Canada. Colleen is the owner and director of her own publishing company, Windhaven Publishing which specializes in Gospel based addiction recovery literature for the LDS community. She is the mother of 12 children and step-mom to 5, and lives after the manner of happiness in Hyrum, Utah with her husband Phil, and her youngest daughter, a recently returned missionary.

A life-long member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Phil served a mission to Germany. In keeping with family academic traditions, Phil graduated from BYU with bachelor’s and master’s degrees in botany, then from the University of Georgia in Athens with a Ph.D., also in botany, with an emphasis in plant physiology. He is currently employed as a Plant Physiologist at the USDA in Logan Utah.

Phil and his first wife, Kathy, lived in Utah, Athens, Georgia, upstate New York and California, then returned to Utah, where for 15 years they led workshops in the “Inner Peace Through Self-Mastery” program, an LDS-oriented adaptation of Recovery Inc., a cognitive therapy approach to emotional health. Phil and Kathy had five children together. In 1998 Kathy and Phil began attending the LDS Twelve Step meetings of Heart t’ Heart. Following Kathy’s passing, Phil married Colleen.

Phil Harrison passed away in January 2021, but his memory will forever color the future mission of Hearthaven Publishing.
