This clev­er­ly illus­trat­ed rela­tion­ship guide helps cou­ples lit­er­al­ly see their way out of hurt­ful, repet­i­tive argu­ments. In her work with cou­ples, clin­i­cal psy­chol­o­gist Michelle Brody devel­oped a way to make the chal­lenge of change a bit sim­pler: using evoca­tive draw­ings and dia­grams that illus­trate the hid­den forces that dri­ve the most famil­iar bat­tles, Dr. Brody shows cou­ples effec­tive strate­gies for find­ing a way out in her new book, Stop the Fight!

Whether her clients were caught in the Part­ner Improve­ment Fight, the ​“You Don’t Care About Me” Fight, or the Dif­fi­cult Rel­a­tives Fight, the pic­tures unlocked the destruc­tive cycle. Through Dr. Brody’s new method, her clients could see with their own eyes what was block­ing their bond, and togeth­er chart a course to rec­og­nize the trig­gers to fights. Stop the Fight! pairs more than 300 gras­pable illus­tra­tions with Dr. Brody’s proven, prag­mat­ic advice. It’s a one-of-a-kind rela­tion­ship man­u­al: con­cise, easy-to-use, and results-oriented.
