Renowned Ph.D’s Collaborate To Create Online Resiliency Assessment Tool

 

Robert Lee Ph.D., cofounder of the institute and a co-creator of the resiliency assessment adds, “Social science shows that relationships not only can withstand challenges but also grow from the experience. Our assessment report and enjoyable follow-up exercises give couples the tools they need to overcome problems and draw closer as a couple.” 

 

Stephen Antisdel, manager of Precept Partners, the website developers said, “The B4CouplesCounseling site is built using the latest HTML5 compliant standards. It performs well across the different devices people use now to access the Internet, including iPads, iPhones, as well as Android, PC and Mac platforms.”

 

“Our purpose is to challenge the tendency of many experts and most couples to worry over relationship crises and, in rehashing them, to feel worse about themselves. Empirical studies in the social sciences strongly indicate that couples are better off recognizing and appreciating their strengths as a couple, learning from each other, and thereby growing stronger together,” concluded Dr. Horak. More information on the Resiliency Assessment tool is available at www.B4CouplesCounseling.org.
