About the Course:

Love is Not Enough explains seven destructive habits and provides suitable antidotes for each practice thereby enabling of the full expression of the love you truly wanted to give, what your family wants to receive, and what they deserve. Until you unlearn dysfunctional habit, love will never be enough.

Most clients seeking therapy – especially marriage counseling – know their love is not working. They have a great desire to love and a need to be loved, but their best expression often comes out sideways. When love does not flow, your clients are lonely and frustrated when they walk in your office asking for help. This book addresses why this happens and provides clear lessons, thoughtful questions, gentle suggestions, and how they can improve.
