within their relationships to get their needs met and feel close, connected, and intimate. Dr. Whiten, author of How To Talk To Your Kids About Your Divorce and 52 Emails To Transform Your Marriage, has seen hundreds of these types of couples as a psychologist in private practice since 2009. Here is a book that can provide insight and concrete direction for couples who are struggling with repetitive dynamics that feel frustrating and difficult.
Dr. Whiten dives into seven common dynamics within couples that are struggling, offering astute observations and deep insight into why these dynamics develop - and, critically, pointing toward concrete steps partners can take to work through them and lead a happier life and a more fulfilling relationship. Attachment styles, concrete tips to “be more romantic,” the importance of physical connection, and exercises for couples are also included.
The book is written in Dr. Whiten’s trademark straightforward and no-nonsense style. You will likely recognize yourself and your partner in at least one of the dynamics, often a few! All the information in this book is integral to understanding more about how you’ve gotten to the stuck place you’re in. Nothing is purely abstract or theoretical.
If you’re someone who hates introspecting or who believes your partner is the entire reason your relationship is frustrating, this isn’t the book for you. But if you are genuinely interested in better understanding yourself and your partner and creating long-lasting and meaningful change based on objective and authentic self-examination, then you will find this book to be chock-full of valuable information!
