What are healthy relationships like? Most of the difficulties we face daily are related to our relationships – whether it’s with our partners, family, children, parents, or with friends, neighbors, or colleagues at work. That’s why most of us genuinely want to learn how to improve our interactions with others.

But what are healthy relationships between couples like? What about healthy families? What are the characteristics of constructive conversations? How can we better respond to the challenges we encounter daily in our lives and disagree with friends, colleagues, and loved ones with respect, without running away or becoming aggressive? Is it possible to have equal-footed dialogue and reach compromises that are functional for everyone involved?

In short, what are healthy relationships? Barbara Berger’s answer to these important questions is through the models she proposes, which describe healthy relationships in practice. The author encourages us to compare our own relationships with these models and identify what truly isn’t working. It provides practical, substantial help because it allows us to start improving every kind of relationship in our lives.

This book is not just another theoretical self-improvement book; it is a valuable manual filled with practical techniques and exercises that will truly change our lives.
