I read this book as a graduate student. I enjoyed the conversational, step-by-step approach and found it very practical. At the end of each chapter there are suggested session outlines to guide a couple from the first session all the way to termination.

This book is incredible. I’ve been working as a therapist for over 15 years and have just recently started doing couples therapy. This book is an easy read that is instructional and so helpful. I’ve begun to implement it with couples and I think it’s going to produce great outcomes.

Poorly written, condescending tone and no new ideas. Don't waste your time.
