Synopsis:

“Help!”
“He Doesn’t Get What I’m Not Saying!”
“She Doesn’t Say What She Means!”

Every marriage faces communication problems–whether about sex, vacation, careers, children, or the remote control. Why do guys often feel clueless, no matter how hard they More...try? Why do women get so tired of dropping hints that they snap? How can something that started out so good, end up so frustating?

Licensed psychologist Dr. Steve Stephens says that communication between genders is truly a cross-cultural experience. The key to communicating well is learning how to interpret the vocabulary, body language, silences, and needs of your spouse–which may be quite different from yours.

Using practical insights from his own two decades of marriage and his twenty-five years as a professional counselor, Dr. Stephens uncovers the differences in communication that lead to relationship breakdown. With a fun and exciting look at the reasons behind marital frustrations, he offers a solution so simple, with results so extraordinary, that you will delight to know what your spouse is really saying–and learn how true communication can change your marriage forever.

About The Author: Born the oldest of six kids, Steve grew up in the suburbs south of Portland, Oregon. He had a positive, though far from perfect, childhood. His parents were hard-working people who were committed to their children. Early in his life, Steve developed a deep curiosity in how people think and relate to each other.
  
In 1976 Steve received a B.A. in psychology at Portland State University. During this time he worked with children from single parent homes and teenagers from three of the local high schools. In 1978 he received a MS in Pastoral Psychology and in 1981 a Ph.D. in Counseling-Clinical Psychology, both from George Fox University. While finishing these degrees he worked as a youth pastor and a counselor at a county mental health facility.

In 1984 Tami and Steve got married. They have had their ups and downs, but they are both truly committed to each other just like their parents (Tami's were married 49 years and Steve's were married 53 years). In 1988 Brittany was born, in 1990 Dylan, and in 1993 Dusty. Steve and his family love to laugh, play, explore, travel, ride bikes and watch movies together.

Since 1984 Dr. Steve has practiced as a licensed Psychologist specializing in marriage, family, stress, depression, trauma and life-adjustment issues. He also acts as a life coach to people of all ages and professions. Dr. Steve is a popular seminar speaker who has spoken to business, non-profit, professional and church groups throughout the country. For five years Dr. Steve hosted an hour-long live call-in radio talk show which ran five days a week throughout Southern Washington and Northern Oregon. He has currently written over 20 books with over a million copies sold. He is co-founder of Every Marriage Matters, Inc. He has also been on the leadership team of his local church for the past 15 years.

Dr. Steve loves life and encouraging others. He also loves learning and having fun. But most of all he loves God, Tami and his three kids.
