Reviews

""Having herself done many surveys in this area, Dr. Pines bases her treatment approach on research findings. Often as therapists we are asked by the couples we see in our offices to suggest a book that we think would be helpful for them to read. Ayala Pines' Couple Burnout is the one I will now recommend. She translates theory and research clearly and makes her ideas accessible to the couples we treat. In reading this book, couples will be affirmed in their struggles to develop more realistic expectations and in their attempts to create new, and potentially more fulfilling, ways to relate to one another."" -- Marion L.Usher, Ph.D, Clinical Professor, George WashingtonUniversity School of Medicine
