Finding the Words, drawn from Halperns years of experience as psychotherapist, wife, and mother, suggests possible, scripted solutions and positive outcomes for a wide range of situations: a partner who needs to talk about the irritations of joint living, parents of an adult child who requires unexpected financial support, grandparents who dont know how to intervene, siblings who disagree about politics or religion, and couples in times of crisis, illness, affairs, and divorce. Presenting life situations along with the words that can be used to cope with them, Halpern offers honesty with a great deal of vitality and wisdom.

Reading Finding the Words is like taking out an insurance policy on the most precious of our relationships. It will carry you through times of crisis and enable you to rebuild the relationships that are the foundation of your life, often making them stronger and better than before. Rachel Naomi Remen, MD"
