the long version

"Licensed marriage and family therapist Dr. Tara Fields has spent more than twenty-eight years working with couples, and she has discovered that there are five common conflict loops that couples fall into--and three steps to getting past having the same fights over and over again and onward to building a relationship where each partner feels heard, understood, respected, and loved...Change comes with awareness. When you're present in the moment, conflict with your partner can become an opportunity to work through unresolved issues and to learn more about each other; it can even become a way to grow closer."--Page 4 of cover.
