\u2022 Blame and counter-blame: how to disrupt this destructive pattern<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dr. Rider explains<\/h2>\n

\u2018\u2019All relationships can be challenging and this is particularly true in environments such as the UAE where a high number of expats live away from their home country. Couples can expect to encounter certain pitfalls but the important thing is to arm yourself with the right tools to pre-empt potential problems and communicate in an open and positive way.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor example, don\u2019t be afraid of discussing the important topics, such as work, finances and children before the marriage and in the early years of marriage so everyone understands the expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Regardless of time in marriage, couples can get stuck, and find it difficult to extricate themselves from patterns of behavior that are not working. Dr. Rider will help to identify these patterns and will offer solutions for disrupting destructive habits.<\/p>\n
