You hear and read a lot about ways to improve your relationship. But if you've tried these without much success, you're not alone. Many highly reactive couples-pairs that are quick to argue, anger, and blame-need more than just the run-of-the-mill relationship advice to solve their problems in love. When destructive emotions are at the heart of problems in your relationship, no amount of effective communication or intimacy building will fix what ails it. If you're part of a 'high-conflict' couple, you need to get control of your emotions first, to stop making things worse, and only then work on building a better relationship. The High-Conflict Couple adapts the powerful techniques of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into skills you can use to tame out-of-control emotions that flare up in your relationship. Using mindfulness and distress tolerance techniques, you'll learn how to deescalate angry situations before they have a chance to explode into destructive fights. Other approaches will help you disclose your fears, longings, and other vulnerabilities to your partner and validate his or her experiences in return. You'll discover ways to manage problems with negotiation, not conflict, and to find true acceptance and closeness with the person you love the most.

Vous avez lu et entendu toutes sortes de conseils pour améliorer votre relation de couple mais, comme pour beaucoup de couples prisonniers des émotions négatives, ces conseils n'ont rien donné. Chez les couples en conflit - prompts à se disputer, à se mettre en colère, à accuser l'autre -, il faut bien plus que quelques conseils glanés çà et là pour résoudre les problèmes de relations. Si les émotions négatives sont au coeur de votre relation, aucune technique de communication efficace ni aucune tentative de rapprochement ne permettront de modifier votre façon de gérer les conflits. Si vous faites partie de ces coupes « très conflictuels », il vous faut d'abord reprendre le contrôle de vos émotions, et ce n'est qu'alors que vous pourrez commencer à reconstruire une relation saine. Ce livre utilise les puissantes techniques de la thérapie comportementale dialectique pour canaliser le trop plein d'émotions qui détériore la relation de couple. Grâce à des procédés de gestion mentale et de gestion de la détresse, vous apprendrez à désamorcer les situations de conflit avant que celles-ci ne dégénèrent en antagonisme destructeur. D'autres approches vous aideront à exprimer à votre partenaire vos peurs, vos désirs et vos autres vulnérabilités et, en retour, à accueillir votre conjoint. Vous apprendrez à gérer les conflits par la négociation plutôt que par l'affrontement, et vous pourrez ainsi vivre une relation de véritable intimité avec la personne que vous aimez le plus au monde.
