Introduction to Healing the Wounds in Couple Relationships

Martin Rovers wrote this book “for people who want to love and be loved; who want to know where love comes from; how it works; how love can live or die; and especially how to live a fuller loving life with a partner.”

Rovers shows how the families in which we were raised continue to influence our relationships long after childhood has ended. This influence can take the form of deeply felt wounds. When love is wounded, how does love get healed?

In order to help readers grapple with this “woundedness,” he presents a series of individual-focused and couple-focused therapeutic strategies for emotional growth and health. Communication and self-awareness are the basis of the process in this very readable and highly practical self-help book.
