Fear of Intimacy by Robert W Firestone

Written in a jargon-free style, this book shows how therapists can help identify and overcome the messages of the internal voice that fosters distortions of the self and loved ones. Related issues such as interpersonal ethics and the role of stereotyping are also discussed.

Patricia Love, EdD, is an internationally recognized therapist and lecturer, as well as the author/coauthor of six books, including Hot Monogamy, The Truth About Love, and How to Better Your Marriage Without Talking About It. She has appeared on Oprah, Today, and CNN, as well as contributing to Cosmopolitan, Men's Health, and Woman's World magazines. Pat maintains a private practice in Austin, Texas, where she focuses on couples using an intense methodology she established during her many years of therapy expertise. Couples attend for three hours to three days to work on their relationship's most pressing difficulties. This natural, organic technique is particularly effective since it addresses both the strengths and obstacles that each couple faces.

Dr. Love (yep, that is her real name!) also provides evidence-based trainings for therapists and counselors. She delivers a variety of instructional experiences covering such relevant issues as relationships, marriage, divorce, sexuality, infidelity, and recovery, depression, anxiety, loneliness, happiness, addiction, recovery, and love in the era of Twitter, utilizing her love for research and curriculum building. You will notice Pat's warmth, humor, and passion to learning when you interact with her, whether as a client or a participant in one of her trainings. Her books, teaching, coaching, and therapy are all worthwhile investments because of this mix.
