Amazing, terrific, helpful, and informative

This is the best and most helpful book ever written! It saved every relationship in my life and especially my marriage. The information in this book is easily understood and applied to any situation. It has opened communication in every relationship. Friendships and any interpersonal conversation can benefit from this process of talking and interacting with one another. This is the most informative book written regarding family counseling. I have never enjoyed reading anything as much as this book. This book greatly improved the quality of my life. My life has never been better because of this book.

Absolutely on Target

Deborah's book masterfully addresses the need for empathy, and not defensiveness or aggression, in communicating the deep issues of relationship. At one of the most delicate points of resolving problems, where couples can so easily take a hurtful path, this book helps them to navigate successfully. In addition to this, the book offers many other very practical helps for people who are wanting clear information. It challenges the myths that people have to "just know" how to build and maintain relationships.

best tool for couples communication

This is a great tool for couples that want to get past that wall that keeps them from truly connecting. It has great truths simplified, so that in the moment it can actually be applied. Some communication books have good information, but they're not put into an easy format to remember and apply. The HEAR process succeeds in both. I would highly recommend it to any helping professional as well.

A Practical Tool For Help In Relationships

This book provides very specific ways that couples or friends can speak to one another. The key is in the title: HEAR; emphasis being on really trying to hear what another is saying without judging or responding quickly. The author has given the reader information that really helps. The book could also be used with small groups trying to understand the topic of communication as well.

Essential material of understanding in relationships.

The HEAR Process is an EXCELLENT resource that identifies the bases for breakdowns in relationsips: unmet needs in the individuals, and provides a pattern for communcating in relationships in response to the needs that have been identified. The HEAR Process is a MUST-HAVE for the professional counselor, social worker, pastor or others working with individuals in pre-marital, marital or family counseling. An invaluable tool!
