Reconnect: A Marriage Counseling Workbook: Guided Conversations & Exercises for a Long-Lasting Relationship

Strengthen your love and rediscover joy in your marriage with revitalizing conversations and exercises

Couples can drift away from each other over time. When obligations and responsibilities pull you in other directions, you and your spouse may find yourselves on different paths, moving away from each other without realizing it. But couples can transform from disconnected and distant to vibrant and thriving by focusing on one core skill: having meaningful conversations--the lifeblood of lasting and loving relationships. In Reconnect, couples therapy authors Zach Brittle, LMHC, and Laura Heck, LMFT, offer skills, conversation prompts, and exercises to help you and your partner rebuild your emotional connection and reignite the passion that once brought you together.
