Intimacy & Solitude

Being alone, Relating to others. Both have the potential for immense personal satisfaction. Both can go disastrously wrong.

Through her empowering, deeply personal work, Stephanie Dowrick allows us to understand why solitude can be difficult and why we don’t always have the relationships we long for.

Drawing on a wide range of personal experiences and psychotherapy’s most useful insights, she helps develop the sense of self and self-worth that is the key to balancing rewarding time alone with sustaining intimate connections.

Intimacy & Solitude is a very different kind of self-help book. Strengthening our capacity for understanding and love, it offers vital possibilities for lasting change.
