Dr. LeslieBeth Wish Ed.D., MSS., MA - Official Guide (Offline)

Family Expert

LeslieBeth Wish is a psychologist and a social worker. Her work at the New England Institute of Family Relations, the first sexual dysfunction clinic in New England, and her research-based book, Incest, Work and Women, earned her national recognition and honor as a pioneer in sexual dysfunction and women's love and career issues. Her book uncovered the connection between childhood abuse and women's career problems.

 

That research sparked her next ground-breaking project on the relationship problems of women, age 20-40+. These age groups come from the highest number of divorced or single parents. This factor, combined with increased number of professional women,especially in the medical and legal professions, has created specific and troubling relationship issues such as disappointing choices of men, affairs and depression.

 

LeslieBeth is writing this next book, Strong Women and Love to help these women get over their mistrust, fears and unhappy, unhealthy dating patterns and learn to date and love smart! If you are interested in being part of the research, please visit her website www.lovevictory.com.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Dr. LeslieBeth Wish
 

For over thirty years, I have worked to help women and families. It is never too late to make changes. Your past does not have to run your life. Respect the power that your family had--or still has--over you, but remember that most of their hurtful behavior, words and attitudes are more about them and their problems than they are about you.

 

You can re-train your thoughts, feelings, actions and brain-wiring so you can be happy, productive and wise. All it takes is some emotional bravery and a belief that you deserve good things.

 

 

Getting Started With Dr. LeslieBeth Wish
 

For more information about me, please feel free to visit my website at www.lovevictory.com, and read my articles or send me a question. I am now conducting research on strong, independent or high-powered women who are smart about their careers but not about love. If you are a capable woman who is disappointed in your relationships, my research project for my next book might interest you. For every hour of interview time you offer, I will provide a free hour of counseling. For now, lookat the following statements and see whether they apply to you.

 

1. I often choose men who are weaker or less effective than I am.

2. I sometimes find myself attracted to strong, high-powered men--who turn mean.

3. I'm afraid to let someone really know me.

4. Friends think I'm a control-freak.

5. I don't read men very well.

 

If these sentences sound like you, then become brave and learn how to change these patterns by joining the other women who have become research participants. You can find happiness in love. Please check my credentials and biography about me. I am a nationally recognized psychologist and social worker, dedicated to quality, integrity and care. I look forward to hearing from you.
