Are you being bullied in your relationship?

You have the power to make it stop.

In this inspiring and life-changing book, acclaimed psychologist and relationship expert Anne-Renée Testa, Ph.D., shows you how to find your inner strength, learn to stand up for yourself, and finally get the love and respect you deserve.

Whether it's been going on for months or for years, you have the power to make it stop.

Deep inside, beyond all the fear and self-doubt, you know in your heart that you deserve better and that you have the courage to change. That's what drew you to this book, and it's your courage that Dr. Anne-Renée Testa believes will help you stand up to the bully in your relationship.

Every situation is different, but that's the beauty of the A.R.T. Method. Dr. Testa guides you step by step through a wide variety of relationships, from the sometime stressful to the downright dysfunctional. She takes you inside the minds of the most common types of bullies--the Rage Bully, the Silent-Treatment Bully, the Control-Freak Bully, the Scorekeeping Bully, and others--and shows you how to deal with one in you life.
