Description: The impact of postpartum depression on a marriage has striking implications and can be potentially damaging to a relationship. For these couples, resources are lacking. They need accurate information and guidance to navigate the challenging combination of marriage, depression, and a new baby. Based on research done by famed therapist John Gottman, Tokens of Affection introduces a model of collaboration that refers to 8 specific features that guide postpartum couples back from their depression. These features, framed as tokens, have their basis in marital therapy literature and have shown to reunite postpartum couples after depression and direct them toward reconnection. The tokens serve as a reminder that these are not just communication skill-building techniques; they are gift-giving gestures on behalf of their relationship. Both professionals, in their work with clients, and men and women suffering from marital difficulties related to postpartum depression, will find this book a useful resource. Readers will learn how to differentiate depression from the stressors that are universal to all parents, and how to apply specific strategies to fortify a marriage s foundation.
