George Withers, Ph.D. - Articles

 

Dr. George Withers is a psychologist who reduces the knowledge gap between what clients and practitioners know regarding personality and how it shapes lives. Reducing this divide increases adaptive potential and affilitated reasoning skills. It also enhances treatment efficacy.

Dr. Withers has completed a text for lay and professional readers entitled, “Divorce Brutality - Why Marriages and Relationships Die - A Window into Personality and Social Decay.” Each chapter validates the adaptive instincts of maturing adults as they process complex relationships. Readers begin to understand that relationships and cultures do not mysteriously die.
