Divorce, separation, and couple breakups are on the rise in the United States of America, with about 48 percent of couples breaking up within nine years of starting a committed relationship. Only a minority of distressed couples ever seek couple counseling—and those that stay together do not necessarily enjoy healthy relationships. Just as sadly, marriage counselors divorce at or about the national average. The Need Management Therapy model asserts that positive change is possible and even likely. The authors offer a treatment package both for the professional in practice and a self-help guide for the non-professional. We have successfully treated hundreds of couple-clients using the NMT model. We are now conducting a randomized pretest posttest two group design investigating several crucial NMT hypothesis (pending). Preliminary data suggest that significant and meaningful change may be achieved in just a few sessions. When the NMT model is applied, couples report not fighting as much—and sometimes, fighting stops altogether. Communication improves dramatically. If you’re passionate about making your relationship work, you’ll find a new science of love, intimacy, and relationships in Need Management Therapy.

At a time of global and domestic economic crisis, the financial aspects of domestic and familial relationships are more important and more strained than ever before. The focus of this book is on the distribution of wealth and poverty in traditional and non-traditional familial relationships. The volume takes an interdisciplinary approach to explore the way in which money matters are structured and governed within close personal relationships and the extent to which they have an impact on the nature and economic dynamics of relationships. As such, the key areas of investigation are the extent to which participation in the labour market, unpaid caregiving, inheritance, pensions and welfare reform have an impact on familial relationships. The authors also explore governmental and legal responses by investigating the privileging of certain types of domestic relationships, through fiscal and non-fiscal measures, and the differential provision on relationship breakdown. The impact of budget and welfare cuts is also examined for their effect on equality in domestic relationships.
