Psychologist Smith advises couples how to take wedding vows, made in earnest and in innocence, to a level where they can be used to build a happy, healthy, satisfying and long-lasting marriage. This book is for couples who are planning marriage, are newly married, or who have been married for years. Dr. Smith addresses the unspoken needs, unasked questions, outrageous expectations, and hidden agendas that often linger beneath the surface of the wedding vows and appear later to cause power struggles, suffering, and feelings of hopelessness in marriages. Calling "truth" the secret ingredient of great marriages, Dr. Smith teaches individuals and couples how to find the truth within themselves and their partners, whether they are heading to the altar, suffering in an unhappy marriage, divorced, or simply want to bring more satisfaction and intimacy into their relationship.--From publisher description.

Work Description
With a firm grounding in psychology, and an expert speaker and counselor, Dr. Robin, as she is widely known, will advise couples on how to best take the vows made in earnest and in innocence to a level where they can be used to build a happy, healthy, satisfying and long-lasting marriage. It will address couples who are planning marriage, are newly married, or who have been married for years. An example of her approach can be seen in the classic vow to unite in marriage "forsaking all others." One partner may read this as a promise not to be adulterous, but another may see it as a promise to be solely and completely devoted to the partner, allowing little room for other existing friendships or bonds with family members. Clear communication about the expectations and realities of each individual and of married life together is the key to a successful marriage. Dr. Robin will lead readers thru the process step by step. Her method is appropriate for those approaching their wedding day, or those celebrating an anniversary. Harville Hendrix's Getting the Love You Want is a classic in the field. Dr. Robin conveys the same positive message, with a woman's touch and a doctor's authority.
