Description

From "a superstar couples therapist...and a maestro of interpersonal drama" (The New York Times), this book offers solutions for attaining the relationships we want, filled with the love and intimacy we deserve.

Bestselling author and nationally renowned therapist Terry Real unearths the causes of communication blocks between men and women in this groundbreaking work. Relationships are in trouble; the demand for intimacy today must be met with new skills, and Real--drawing on his pioneering work on male depression--gives both men and women those skills, empowering women and connecting men, radically reversing the attitudes and emotional stumbling blocks of the patriarchal culture in which we were raised. Filled with powerful stories of the couples Real treats, no other relationship book is as straight talking or compelling in its innovative approach to healing wounds and reconnecting partners with a new strength and understanding.
