Coming Back Together: A Guide to Successful Reintegration
After Your Partner Returns from Military Deployment
Steven L. Sayers, Ph.D.
#916 When a partner or spouse returns from war, it should be a time for joy; but it also can be a time
of transition, challenges, and uncertainty. Your loved one, for example, may suffer from psychological
and physical wounds, experience “battlemind,” a condition that leaves them constantly anxious and
on-edge, and may have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). If they are uncommunicative, you
may feel like you’re living with a stranger, and struggle to recreate the bond of intimacy you once
shared. This book offers real tools to help you reestablish family routines and build a stronger sense
of intimacy with your partner after a military deployment, even if they are resistant to help. 200 pages. 2014. $24.95.
SPECIALS: 10 copies for $233.95; 100 copies for $2,159.00.
