Recent Couple's Therapy Happening
11/11/2014



Dear Dr. Laura, 

I wanted to write to give you a giggle. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist, doctor of clinical psychology, and a registered nurse. 

Recently, I was doing couple's therapy with a couple I've seen for approximately 6 months. When I asked how they felt their couple's therapy was going, the wife replied, "Well, to be honest, it was the book, "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands".  You had suggested that I read it and it has been most influential in helping me understand myself better, as well as my role in my marriage and how to make it better." I said, "What am I, chopped liver?" We all laughed. 

So, here's to you Dr. Laura and I am proud to say that my clients sometimes tell me my therapeutic input and suggestions remind them of what Dr. Laura might say. I consider that the highest compliment.

Thanks for all you do and mazel tov on your son's recent marriage. As a grandmother of two, two and a half and 5 months just wait. It's above and beyond the best experience ever and my son never fails to impress me in the way he parents and how he treats his wife. One more positive! My other son just passed his second exam and is now a licensed marriage and family therapist! Whoooo Hooooo!

Life certainly is about doing the right thing and your kids will certainly follow. 

Dr. Amy
