Rooted in attachment styles and evidence-based practices (including Emotionally Focused Therapy principles), this practical guide replaces vague advice with simple tools: a 10-minute repair script for heated moments, connection rituals that actually fit busy lives, and conversation prompts that turn criticism into care. You'll find checklists, mini-assessments, and real-life examples that show couples moving from shutdown and anxiety to security and warmth-without waiting for your partner to "change first."
