Practise courageous love and build resilient intimacy with the groundbreaking IFS model of therapy.

'A must read' - Esther Perel
'My relationship bible' - Gabby Bernstein
'Releases our capacity to be fully alive in relationships' - Bessel van der Kolk

Most loving relationships fail, not because of communication or empathy breakdown, but because we unknowingly burden our partner with the task of caring for disowned and unloved parts of ourselves, our 'internal family'.

Building on the revolutionary Internal Family Systems model of therapy, Dr Richard Schwartz reveals how to reconnect and foster a healthy dialogue with your wise and compassionate 'Self' and your partner. You Are the One You've Been Waiting For will equip you with the essential tools needed to build trust and connection with the one you love.
