- Short Description:
- Bader delves into the complex landscape of honesty in intimate relationships. Drawing from research and clinical experience, she examines the nuanced ways couples deceive each other, from minor "loving lies" to devastating betrayals. Bader explores how differentiation—the ability to authentically express oneself while respecting a partner's separate identity—is crucial for building trust and intimacy. Through case studies and therapeutic techniques, she offers professionals practical strategies for helping couples navigate affairs, overcome deception, and develop the emotional courage to be truly known by one another.
