Plymouth, MI (PRWEB) — Dan Smith, a bank executive with Republic Bank in Southeast Michigan, has a unique outlook on how money affects a marriage, a perspective gained from decades of helping couples re-mortgage their houses to divide assets in divorces.
Smith is one of five experts whose special knowledge are used in The Marriage Medics, a guidebook now available to couples thinking about a divorce. (ISBN- 0-9760844-0-6)
The Marriage Medics, authored by Cynthia Cooper PhD and Scott Lorenz, shares the reasons why some couples fall head-first into divorce and others walk away restored and emotionally healthy. There are several complex and varied issues couples must resolve when deciding whether to divorce or rebuild a marriage. And dealing with different kinds of problems requires different kinds of expertise, including financial help.

And dealing with different kinds of problems requires different kinds of expertise, including financial help.
In 1994, Smith was designated as a Mortgage Originator Magazine “Superstar Originator” and Mortgage Generator Superstar Mortgage Banker. He has generated more than $800 million in career sales. During his 22 years of mortgage banking experience, Smith has worked with numerous couples dividing assets because of divorce. He is convinced that couples can get their finances under control and avoid the financial devastation that divorce brings.
“A lot of people file for divorce thinking that it is like filing for bankruptcy, that it will solve their financial difficulties,” says Smith. “Most of the time it gets worse. Those bills have got to be split up. Now you have two households to pay for, two different heating bills, two rents or mortgage payments … Regardless of who “wins,” and someone always thinks he or she is going to win, invariably they both lose.”
Couples who succeed in rescuing their relationships seem to do so by using a network of support, a combination of experts such as Smith who can help guide them to specific approaches to various issues.
The Marriage Medics collects your ideal relationship support network into a single book. Smith and the other experts contributing to the book has seen hundreds of divorces from their unique professional perspective, and each knows exactly what factors can determine success or failure.
Cynthia Cooper is a clinical psychotherapist who has counseled couples and families for decades on how better to communicate and relate to each other. She possesses a doctoral degree in clinical psychology, human science research and education, a specialist degree in humanistic psychology, human science research and education, and a Master of Science degree in clinical psychology
“It’s unique because most divorce help books are strictly from one viewpoint,” say Lorenz. “If the root of marital discord is money then readers will want to go directly to the financial section of the book. It’s been said if you only had a hammer then every problem is a nail. The Marriage Medics offers many tools in the kit for people to use.”
Cooper stresses that The Marriage Medics is a resource guide, not as a comprehensive therapy in and of itself. “We firmly believe there can be no substitute for the face-to-face action that occurs in therapy,” says Cooper. “This e-book is meant to be a jumping off place in the process of your life, a place for you to find the energy and courage to honestly examine and change your relationship and marriage into what you want it to become.”

The Marriage Medics comes highly recommended by reviewer Jennie S. Bev, managing editor of BookReviewClub.com who says the book “teaches couples what to expect realistically from their partners –and themselves– and how to act, also realistically when it comes to sustaining their marriages. It’s like having a knowledgeable friend who knows the ins and outs of the married life.”
