Overview

Cultivating Love Finishing Strong is a book in the Cultivating Love book series, where the focus of this book is to address problematic or compulsive sexual behavior in the lives of men and women. This task specific book has 26.2 Basic Assignments, and is intentionally named 26.2, which is the length of a marathon. The name of the men's groups that Dr. McGill facilitates is called 26.2, because just as there is no easy way to complete a marathon, Dr. McGill helps the reader and the participants in his practice to realize there is no easy way to rush toward solutions when dealing with sexuality and sexual experiences, dysfunctional, addictive, healthy or otherwise. In an effort to assist the reader to run a certifiable race, experience success with his or her sexual behavior, and to finish strong in this area of their lives, this book provides an abundance of Psychological, Twelve Step, Biblical and Relationship building tools to help men and women who are single or in a committed relationship. Cultivating Love Finishing Strong and all of the books in the Cultivating Love series are great resources for individuals, couples, people who are challenged with addictive behaviors as well as for Counselors, Pastors, Pastoral Counselors, Clinicians and College students. Other books in the Cultivating Love series are: 1. Enhancing Communication: Effective communication tools to facilitate dialogue, empowerment and conflict resolution. This is a staple in my counseling practice. 2. When Secrets Surface: An in depth exploration of how to deal with the discovery of unfaithfulness, with insight and practical exercises to help you make safe, informed and healthy choices regarding what direction you wish to take with your relationship. 3. Renewal in Your Life and Your Marriage: Is for couples who have decided they wish to rebuild their relationship, and this workbook provides the couple with practical, effective and clinical tools to assist them in their process of defining and growing healthy, safe and edifying behaviors that will produce love, and strengthen and protect their marriage. 4. Growing Character: Identifying, exploring and cultivating values that help you to determine how you wish to live your life. Thank you for your consideration of the Cultivating Love book series, and for considering purchasing Cultivating Love Finishing Strong. Dr. Ken McGill, LMFT Certified Sex Addiction Therapist
