gentle, frank, and straightforward. One of the most wonderful
things about Kolakowski's writing is that she delicately weaves

informs, and inspires with hope and encouragement."

"Kolakowski has written a wonderfully practical book to help people
dealing with depression and struggling to preserve their
relationships. She integrates her psychology expertise in very
simple and easy-to-follow ways. From attachment to coping styles,
Kolakowski addresses the psychological aspects of depression that
contribute to hurting a relationship, and offers practical and easy
exercises to break away from harmful patterns. The book is a great
resource--not only for people dealing with depression in their
relationship, but also for any couple wanting to improve their
communication style, add mindfulness in the relationship, and gain
sexual intimacy. As a professor and psychologist working with
couples, I intend to recommend this book to my psychology students
and couples as an easy read and addendum to clinical work."
