Marriage Meetings for Lasting Love

Marcia Naomi Berger is a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist. Did you know the average couple spends as few as four minutes a day talking to each other? No wonder it can be so hard to figure out what your partner is thinking or what they want. After being married for a while, couples can get so used to finishing each other’s sentences that they forget to let the other person talk. Small details like the simple conversation can get lost on our everyday to-do lists. Marcia Naomi Berger is the author of “Marriage Meetings for Lasting Love.” She explains how couples can conduct a weekly gentle conversation that increases intimacy, romance, teamwork, and smoother resolution of conflicts.
