Download or read book Couples Therapy written by Janis Bryans Psy. D and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You desperately want to know how to save your marriage... but you have NO answers! You feel helpless and frustrated. The pain does not diminish, it magnifies, consumes your mind and tears your heart to pieces. This is what I often hear from my customers. ♥ 3 Books in 1 ♥This collection includes: ◆ Couple Therapy Workbook◆ Healing from infidelity◆ Codependency You may have heard painful things like "I'm not happy anymore", "I don't love you" or "I'm leaving you". Perhaps your partner has already left you. Whatever the situation, I know how extremely difficult, stressful and harrowing this situation is... and I know how hopeless such a situation can make you feel. So, I'll begin by telling you that there is a light at the end of this long, dark tunnel. When a marriage hits a crisis, the actions that individuals take could change their lives forever; so, finding the right help is essential. This handbook by Bryans shares his thoughts and guidance that has led many couples to seek help and rebuild their lives following a relationship crisis. You find it hard to understand how the person you loved, who once loved you, can now treat you like an enemy. Your spouse may repeatedly say things such as "I'm done, it's done", or even, "You're getting worse" when you try to do anything to save your marriage. You want a sign of encouragement. Should you give up? No. Is there a magical solution, a "quick fix" or a "simple sentence" that will save your marriage? No. But there are specific things that you should do (and some that you should NOT be doing if you want to save your marriage). This book would be useful for any married or unmarried couple. Even if you are in a good position in your relationship, it can only help to improve things. With this collection you will learn: 1. Couple Therapy Workbook - Conflict is part of every relationship, even the healthiest ones. The key to a long-lasting relationship isn't avoiding fights, but rather seeing them as opportunities to work together. This handbook is a helpful toolkit containing expert advice and activities to help both of you cultivate stronger attachment bonds and greater relationship. 2. Healing from Infidelity - Betrayal represents a direct attack on self-esteem. Not only will we feel angry, emotional pain or even hate, but it is a common occurrence to feel humiliated. This can lead to the risk of falling into depression. Fortunately, the contents of this manual can help you to overcome the pain, no matter what kind of betrayal you have suffered or the depth of the wound inflicted. There is always a chance of recovery if you follow the right path. 3. Codependency - In a crisis, it's easy to revert to old patterns. Caring for your well-being during the coronavirus pandemic includes maintaining healthy boundaries and saying no to unhealthy relationships. Is someone else's problem your problem? If, like so many others, you've lost sight of your own life in the drama of tending to someone else's, you may be codependent. Not everyone wants, or has time, to physically sit down with a consultant; but with this book you can now do it in the privacy of your home. This is an excellent guide that will help you in your efforts to get things back on track or simply to maintain what is already a good track. Rebuilding a broken marriage is a rocky road. Reading this manual now is the best way to correct a relationship that is falling apart and to avoid triggering negative chain reactions while it is still possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As seen on The TODAY Show! “A godsend to anyone searching for, but struggling to find, true love in their lives.” —Kristin Neff, PhD, author of Self-Compassion "Empowering and compassionate, and its lessons are universal." —Publishers Weekly Real love starts with you. In order to attract a life partner and build a healthy intimate relationship, you must first become a good partner to yourself. This book offers twenty invaluable lessons that will help you explore and commit to your own emotional and psychological well-being so you can be ready, resilient, and confident in love. Many of us enter into romantic relationships full of expectation and hope, only to be sorely disappointed by the realization that the partner we’ve selected is a flawed human being with their own neuroses, history, and desires. Most relationships end because one or both people haven’t done the internal work necessary to develop self-awareness and take responsibility for their own experiences. We’ve all heard “You can’t love anyone unless you love yourself,” but amid life’s distractions and the myth of perfect, romantic love, how exactly do you do that? In Loving Bravely, psychologist, professor and relationship expert Alexandra H. Solomon introduces the idea of relational self-awareness, encouraging you to explore your personal history to gain an understanding of your own relational patterns, as well as your strengths and weaknesses in relationships. By doing so, you’ll learn what relationships actually require, beyond the fairytale notions of romance. And by maintaining a steady but gentle focus on yourself, you’ll build the best possible foundation for making a loving connection. By understanding your past relationship experiences, cultivating a strong sense of self-awareness, and determining what it is you really want in a romantic partner—you’ll be ready to find the healthy, lasting love your heart desires.

Download or read book How Not to Hate Your Husband After Kids written by Jancee Dunn and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Get this for your pregnant friends, or yourself" (People): a hilariously candid account of one woman's quest to bring her post-baby marriage back from the brink, with life-changing, real-world advice. Recommended by Nicole Cliffe in Slate Featured in People Picks A Red Tricycle Best Baby and Toddler Parenting Book of the Year One of Mother magazine's favorite parenting books of the Year How Not To Hate Your Husband After Kids tackles the last taboo subject of parenthood: the startling, white-hot fury that new (and not-so-new) mothers often have for their mates. After Jancee Dunn had her baby, she found that she was doing virtually all the household chores, even though she and her husband worked equal hours. She asked herself: How did I become the 'expert' at changing a diaper? Many expectant parents spend weeks researching the best crib or safest car seat, but spend little if any time thinking about the titanic impact the baby will have on their marriage - and the way their marriage will affect their child. Enter Dunn, her well-meaning but blithely unhelpful husband, their daughter, and her boisterous extended family, who show us the ways in which outmoded family patterns and traditions thwart the overworked, overloaded parents of today. On the brink of marital Armageddon, Dunn plunges into the latest relationship research, solicits the counsel of the country's most renowned couples' and sex therapists, canvasses fellow parents, and even consults an FBI hostage negotiator on how to effectively contain an "explosive situation." Instead of having the same fights over and over, Dunn and her husband must figure out a way to resolve their larger issues and fix their family while there is still time. As they discover, adding a demanding new person to your relationship means you have to reevaluate -- and rebuild -- your marriage. In an exhilarating twist, they work together to save the day, happily returning to the kind of peaceful life they previously thought was the sole province of couples without children. Part memoir, part self-help book with actionable and achievable advice, How Not To Hate Your Husband After Kids is an eye-opening look at how the man who got you into this position in this first place is the ally you didn't know you had.
