Healing, Stability, and Real-World Tools
Books and resources created by Haven Homecare founder, LaRonica Miller, for people who are tired of just surviving and ready to rebuild.
At Haven Homecare Services, we don’t just care for people in their homes, we care about their whole story.
Our founder, LaRonica Miller, is a social worker, author, veteran, and woman of faith who has walked through her own seasons of survival, healing, and rebuilding.
These books were written for real people facing real life: single parents, caregivers, clients on assistance, helpers, and anyone trying to move from chaos to stability. You don’t have to have it all together to start. You just have to be willing to be honest and take the next step.

Still Becoming: The Guided Journal
A safe space to keep talking to yourself and God.
The Still Becoming Guided Journal is a companion to the workbook or a powerful tool on its own. It gives you a private place to:
- Respond to reflection questions more deeply
- Track your emotional and spiritual growth over time
- Capture prayers, revelations, and “aha” moments
- Check in with yourself on hard days and good ones
The journal is structured enough to give you direction but open enough to let you be fully you. If you’ve ever felt like your thoughts are all over the place, this journal gives them a home.
Perfect for:
- Using alongside the healing workbook
- Daily or weekly check-ins
Clients in counseling or coaching
Women who process best by writing
The Exit Plan: Learning How to Use the System Without Letting It Use You
A real-world guide for people on Section 8, SNAP, disability, and other systems who are planning their way out—not just dreaming about it.
The Exit Plan is a practical, straight-talking guide for people who are in “the system” and want to use it as a bridge, not a permanent address.
Written from the perspective of a social worker who has been both inside the helping system and a client herself, this book covers:
- Understanding what you’re really in (Section 8, SNAP, disability, etc.) without shame
- How to apply for school, grants, and financial aid in plain language
- Starting a business the right way (EIN, licenses, taxes) without getting overwhelmed
- Building multiple streams of income that make sense for your life
- Making housing moves wisely (not emotionally)
- Planning an Exit timeline that fits your reality—not social media pressure
It also includes guided pages, prompts, and notes for:
- Clients
- Caseworkers & social workers
- Supportive friends and family who want to walk someone through an Exit Plan the right way

The Night It Broke
The Night It Broke is a raw, story-driven look at the moment everything seemed to fall apart and how God met me in the middle of it.
This book is less of a “how-to” and more of a “this is what it felt like,” for anyone who has had a breaking point they thought they’d never come back from.
