OHEL’s Simcha Feuerman’s New Book, “Marriage 911” Hopes to Revive Troubled Marriages
OHEL’s Director of Operations, Simcha Feuerman, LCSW-R released a new groundbreaking book, “Marriage 911”, which he co-authored with his wife, Chaya Feuerman, LCSW-R. This book is unique in that it offers concise, clear, step by step instructions on how to turn around a failing marriage.
Simcha commented, “Generosity and forgiveness are key elements to a successful marriage. But kindness must be balanced with healthy self-esteem and limit setting. When do you forgive? When do you fight? Even more important, how do you forgive, and how do you fight? Knowing how to deliver your message and how to manage your emotions are as important as knowing what you should do.”
Here are what some of the reviewers are saying:
"The number of marriages that fail today is unprecedented, with tragic outcome for the couple and the children. Rabbi Simcha and Chaya Feuerman's book provides a method that can save many marriages. It requires effort, but the prize is more than worth it."
Rabbi Abraham J. Twerski MD
"Marriage 911 is a valuable tool for dealing with the inevitable conflict that couples encounter. …highly informative and fun to read…with liberal use of insights from real life vignettes, Jewish sources, and mental health research. I highly recommend this book…"
David Pelcovitz, Ph.D., Professor, Azrieli Graduate School of Jewish Education, Yeshiva University
