Dr. Henry Cloud is a well-known psychologist who has written several books, including Boundaries. In Changes that Heal, Dr Cloud addresses some of the key issues that prevent us from moving forward in our adult lives. Often, a critical component of our development was skipped or incomplete. As a result, that component of ourselves gets “stuck” at the age at which that development piece should have happened. Addressing topics such as our ability to bond to others, handling boundaries, and handling all of life’s little turns between good and bad, readers are able to identify and work through key areas of development. The result is an ability to become a better-functioning adult.

Note: This can be an intensive study, depending on how seriously it is taken.  While independent study will absolutely yield results, Dr Cloud advises – and we agree – that working through the book with a trusted friend will be an incredibly rewarding experience.
