Break Up or Break Through
Psychotherapist Dina Bachelor Evan claims that 98 percent of the couples who come to her for counseling stay together, giving credence to the advice she offers in Break Up or Break Through.
Written specifically for a gay and lesbian audience, its rules for good relationships evoke universal self-help themes, such as respecting boundaries, overcoming personal limitations, and creating intimacy. With its breathing exercises, “Spiritual Relationship Personal Inventory” tests, and upbeat chakra-talk, this volume will appeal to gay and lesbian couples looking for helpful answers.
Dina Bachelor Evan, PhD, MFCC, is a twenty-year veteran psychotherapist and executive coach who specializes in individual and couples counseling. She is also the author of Love Always and Love from the Inside Out.
"We have been lucky enough to know Dina for years, in fact she gloriously officiated at our wedding. We know we loved her and attended one of her weekend Breakthrough relationships retreats. Respectful, discreet, fun and encouraging. We spent the weekend laughing and participating with diverse couples and singles. We learned some tools for “breaking through” tough spots and making an already good relationship better. Dina is a master and we are delighted she put these new tools and concepts in a book for everyone." -KATHY NAJIMY, Kathy and Mo, Sister Act and Veronica’s Close and DAN FINNERTY, The Dan Band, HBO
"This is such a warm hearted-book, it seems unnecessary to mention that it is also wise and useful. Relationship counselors should find this book enormously helpful in setting up meaningful activities for clients." -FOREWORDMAGAZINE.COM
