“I absolutely love this book.” Dr. John Gottman

“I absolutely love this book. It is an incredibly useful handbook for couples to build essential aspects of their relationship together. Thoughtful, practical, and deeply insightful.”

Dr. John Gottman
Dr. John GottmanWorld-renowned relationship researcher · Author of The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work

“Most couples want to have meaningful and bonding conversations but simply don’t know how to begin or what to say. Couples Conversations is the perfect handbook to help partners support each other and discover what each needs in their relationship.”

Two minutes on why this exists.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, a Certified Gottman Therapist, and a professor at Yeshiva University. Couples Conversations came out of one pattern I kept seeing in my office: couples who loved each other and had simply stopped asking questions.

From readers

What readers say about the questions.

“Me and my partner have been together so long that sometimes we get lost in the comfortable-ness with each other, so were on autopilot. This book helped us reconnect with each other and helped us remember why we first fell in love.”

CristalAmazon review · Master Edition

“Couples have a challenging time coming up with ways to have the deep conversations and explore each other's thinking and memories. This book really helps and fills that need!”

MichelleAmazon review · Master Edition

“I was impressed at the thought and detail that went into this book and if you are looking to strengthen any part of your relationship with a partner I would recommend reading this.”
