Description

Postpartum depression is hard on a marriage. In their private practices, authors Karen Kleiman and Amy Wenzel often find themselves face-to-face with marriages that are suffocating, as if the depression has sucked the life out of a relationship that was only prepared for the anticipated joy of pending childbirth.

What happens to marriage? Why do couples become angry, isolated, and disconnected?

Tokens of Affection looks closely at marriages that have withstood the passing storm of depression and are now seeking, or in need of, direction back to their previous levels of functioning and connectedness.

The reader is introduced to a model of collaboration that refers to 8 specific features, which guide postpartum couples back from depression.

These features, framed as “Tokens,” are based on marital therapy literature and serve as a reminder that these are not just communication skill-building techniques; they are gift-giving gestures on behalf of their relationship.

A reparative resource, Tokens of Affection helps couples find renewed harmony, a solid relational ground, and reconnection.
