There is basically no one writing about relationships in a way that’s informed by therapeutic practice and psychological theory but isn’t written like self-help literature or clickbait. Then there’s the two of us, who are writing stylishly and thoughtfully about relationships and couples therapy. If this kind of writing appeals to you, then you should subscribe.

That’s not entirely fair. There are plenty of other good writers out there, but less than you might think, given the extraordinary degree of interest in the topic.
