Book Description

InCouple Burnout, Ayala Pines offers a unique model to combat relationship burnout by describing the phenomenon of couples burnout; its causes, danger signs and symptoms; and the most effective strategies therapists can use. Distinguishing burnout from problems caused by clinical depression or other pathologies, Pines combines three major clinical perspectives that are used by couple therapists--psychodynamic, systems and behavioral--with additional approaches that focus attention on the social- psychological perspective and existential perspective to couples' problems.

This review is from: Couple Burnout: Causes and Cures (Paperback)
This book is a great read. It openly deals with people's ideas about what they need from a partner... namely, how an individual's romantic ideals are shaped, and how he/she inadvertanly chooses a partner based on these ideals. Sounds simple, but it get's more involved.

Burnout happens to almost everyone- and this book helps people get back on track with their relationships by identifying the most common issues that cause burnout. The author uses examples from "real-couple" case studies. Read some excerpts and the table of contents for a brief overview.

I was on a "mission" when I read the book, and so ended up skipping around to pertinent chapters at first, but I did end up finishing it from cover to cover, and can not tell you how much I learned, and will be taking forward with me.
