The meeting elements are appreciation, responsibilities, planning for good times together, and working through challenges. Author is a psychotherapist with more than 25 years' experience"--Provided by publisher"--"Because they are the product of failed marriages and watch so many of their peers divorce, most couples don't have many successful long-term relationship role models. Parenting and communication issues are perennial while some challenges - like increasingly 24/7 work lives and economic hardships - mark the current decade. Despite all this, psychotherapist and clinical social worker Marcia Naomi Berger asserts that most couples can make love last, they just need to learn how. Berger answers that need with a deceptively simple prescription: have an interruption-free 45-minute (or shorter) meeting each week and follow an agenda that includes the kind of appreciation and planning for fun that fosters intimacy and paves the way for collaborative conflict resolution. Berger has refined these techniques while working with hundreds of couples - with results that are both practical and profound"--

Overcoming betrayal : the breakthrough therapeutic approach : a couple's guide to healing from both perspectives / by Rosenblat, Rebecca,author.(CARDINAL)817365;
Includes bibliographical references."When a betrayal rocks a relationship--be it due to an affair or sex addiction--the couple needs to work together to get through it. But feeling hurt, upset, and afraid dissuades both parties from being exposed and vulnerable to each other--the very ingredients that are critical to healing. And most books are generally directed at the partner's pain and healing, the wounding party's recovery, or a clinical view of the couple-ship. This book is intended to bring both parties together, by understanding each other's mindset, feeling each other's pain, and finding the answers that couples look for when their world has been blown apart. Using a powerful combination of both theory and story, you'll be able to connect with the emotions of our composite couple (based on hundreds of couples that I've seen), understand the emotions that betrayals stir up, and ultimately learn how to navigate through them, to come together to a place of healing, that's better than anything you thought possible. The book starts off with a bit more theory to give you guidance, and ends with the perfect story, that'll give you both hope and healing. It's a must read for any couple who wants to find their way back to each other! There isn't another book quite like it, that'll take you to the heart of your emotions, answer your questions, and help you heal in a life-transforming way. It's the ultimate couple bible to take you from a place of darkness to a place of light, that's full of the joy and happiness you never thought possible. Yes, you can get there, and you can learn to trust again!"--
