The Crossliminal Press
Some books don’t fit neatly on a shelf. They balance at the intersection of who we have been and who we are becoming. These are the books Crossliminal Press exists to bring into the world.
Crossliminal Press is a boutique independent publisher dedicated to books that ask real questions of real people. We publish authors who write from both expertise and lived experience. Our authors invite their readers to dig deep, knowing that the most important insights rarely arrive without some discomfort along the way.
The word liminal names the threshold: the pause between one state and another, when the old has released and the new has not yet arrived. It is uncomfortable territory, and also sacred. The best books meet you in exactly that place and then accompany you to the other side.

AI companionship is no longer science fiction. For millions of people, it is already a source of comfort, advice, and escape. But what does it mean to turn to AI wisely?
Without fear or hype, Laura offers a clear-eyed guide to one of the most intimate questions of our technological age: what happens when we let machines meet our human need for connection? Drawing on current research in psychology and neuroscience, along with more than a decade of clinical experience, she examines what AI companionship can offer, what it cannot replace, and how it may quietly shape our well-being.
Written for curious and reflective readers—including individuals, parents, educators, and anyone helping others navigate AI’s emotional pull—this book offers a practical roadmap for using AI with consciousness, boundaries, and care.
This is a guide to benefiting from AI without losing yourself in the process.
