The process of finding and making the best possible match is not an easy one. On the contrary, from an emotional perspective finding, making, maintaining, and enriching an intimate partnership is one of the most challenging tasks an adult faces. There must be an attraction or a "spark" for a true match to be made. When a couple comes for counseling, they come with the hope that their relationship can be renewed-that they can capture the heat and the emotion that they once had together. The Couple's Match Book: Lighting, Rekindling, or Extinguishing the Flame explores relationship theory and research. Including self-assessment activities to help determine what actions to take to improve relationships, this guild offers information that focuses on understanding and respecting personality differences, role perceptions, communication, and problem-solving. The balance of the book shares personal stories written by couples detailing their own experiences in an effort to help others in improving their intimate relationships. The Couple's Match Book: Lighting, Rekindling, or Extinguishing the Flame can be used as a supplemental text in marriage and family courses, as well as a primary resource in couples counseling and marriage and family therapy.

Why do couples find it so difficult to stick with a savings plan? The answer lies in their thoughts and motivations-what Laura Bell refers to as a "Spending Mindset." By developing a "Wealth Mindset" instead, new ways of thinking about money can lead to a prosperous future. Bell lays out a roadmap for couples looking for financial well-being and possibly a healthier relationship as well. The Couple's Strategy for Building Wealth is not a risky get-rich-quick scheme; rather, it is an easy-to-read guide that presents couples with a straightforward approach for building wealth. "This book is as unique as it is crucial: every couple needs to understand these concepts because money is a notorious relationship buster and doesn't need to be. I defy anyone to read this book and not come away with some ideas that are immediately usable." -Ted Cadsby, MBA, CFA, ICD.D, Corporate Director, best-selling author, consultant and former executive vice president of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce

Couples: Building Bridges shows therapists how to successfully apply basic principles of human interaction and communication to help facilitate intimate connections between people. Using the approaches in this book, you will see how the bridge between couples materializes naturally as a result of the combination of respect, truth, careful observations, awareness, and shared information.Contributors in Couples: Building Bridges encourage therapists to bring their own behavior into awareness--to see themselves as the major instrument of change in the therapy process and to recognize that work must begin with themselves before starting to work with couples. However, the book stresses that therapy is not something performed on a couple but rather a process geared toward increasing the range of choice of behavior for clients.Therapists working with couples or with individuals seeking therapy concerning their intimate relationships will find Couples: Building Bridges a valuable reference for promoting healthy, open relationships.
