Psychologist Dr Janet Reibstein is a US born/UK resident clinician, academic, coach, consultant, broadcaster and writer who has been dubbed in the popular media 'The UK’s couples guru’. She is Professor Emerita at the University of Exeter. Her research on couples, published over three of her books, formed the basis of a prime time television series and two BBC Radio 4 series. Her research and practice (including an innovative clinical method for working with couples in use across the UK) has yielded a ‘code’ for how to manage tricky times within any sort of relationship—from families, to friendships, to love relationships, to work ones, a 'code' that is easily communicated and learned-- as you can see in her popular book, Good Relations: Cracking the code for how to get on better, (published by Bloomsbury), a manual for how to do it. Programmes for divorcing and separating parents now in use in UK courts which she developed have shown that even confronted with extreme difficulties in relating you can learn to do relationships better. Her books are the ‘go-to’ for learning how to ‘do’ relating well; to learn how to negotiate through sticky moments; to become a super-'relator': that is, to become as ‘relationally capable’ as you can be, whether that's relating with a lover, a friend, a sibling, a parent, a child, or a colleague.
