Synopsis

"[A] wonderfully practical and comprehensive guide to couples’ growth… any couple’s guide to profound intimacy and love, for a lifetime." – Dr. William D. Slaughter, Harvard Medical School

"[A]n extraordinary resource for clients and clinicians, jam packed with wisdom, warmth, and innovative concepts. An indispensable book in improving relationships. This one goes directly into my clinical library! - P. Michele Sugg, Past-President, American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists

Our intimate relationships are supposed to be joyful, fulfilling, satisfying and lusty, right? Yet about one in five Americans (at least - people will lie to survey takers) report being unhappy in their marriage or relationship. Are you one of them? What if you had the power to fix that? You do!

Do you ever:

• Feel “lost” in your relationship
• Find that your discussions too often become arguments
• Feel that your relationship demands too much sacrifice
• Find yourself often feeling angry, frustrated, or disappointed
• Feel your relationship is “in trouble”

James R. Fleckenstein applies his Affirmative IntimacyTM approach to inspiring quotes from many sources, then follows each with a concrete action step for transforming yourself and your relationship! By applying these hacks, you’ll cut through the fog of unhelpful beliefs and attitudes, improve communication and build harmony.

If you’re ready for transformation, buckle your seatbelt – this book is for you.

"Love that Works is a practical and wisdom-filled handbook on creating just what the title offers. No matter the gender, orientation, and the reader's form of relationship, the book goes to the heart of the core issues that drive all kinds of relationships apart and presents powerful tools that anyone can use to build stronger connections with their partners and themselves. Jim's book draws on the last century of relationship research and clinical practice as well as plain-speak to inspire partners to become better partners... I am planning on using these worksheets regularly in my clinical practice and I just might use them to do some of my own personal clean-up work in my own relationship!" - Dr. Anna Randall, DHS, MSW, MPH, Sex Therapist, Psychotherapist and Sexual Health Researcher
