Guide and workbook in one. Learn it, then do it.
You love each other. So why does it feel this hard?
If you keep having the same three fights, living like polite roommates, or feeling alone in the same house, this book is for you.
What Couples Therapists Wish You Knew is the combined edition: a couples therapist's honest teaching, plus the workbook exercises that make it stick. Two books in one, following one couple, Alisha and Devon, from the first page to the last.
The 10 lessons:
- Stop Letting the Kids Run the Relationship
- Your Arguments Are Telling You Something
- Cheer Each Other On
- Your Partner Comes First (Yes, Really)
- You Two Are Not the Same Person and That Is the Point
- Stop Waiting for a Reason to Be Thoughtful
- Listening Is Not Just Waiting for Your Turn to Talk
- The Small Stuff Is Actually the Big Stuff
- Repair Is Possible, Even Now
- What Comes Next
Every chapter pairs a real scene from the therapy room with Your Turn exercises, word-for-word "Say It Like This" swaps, and Notes from the Therapy Room. It opens with a Relationship Temperature Check and closes with a 14-day plan and a promise you sign in writing.
Reading it alone for now? There is a page at the front written just for you.
Plain words. No lectures. Like a friend who happens to be a therapist, telling you the truth with love.
