College is a time of transition—students are navigating independence, relationships, and personal growth. Strong relationship skills not only support mental and emotional well-being but also enhance academic performance, teamwork, and resilience during these formative years.
Every student hears that communication and connection are keys to healthy relationships, but few understand the why behind conflict or disconnection. Relationship Needs is the first and only book that pinpoints our core Behavioral Needs and provides 10 proven shortcuts and 188 tips to fulfill them in real time.
From psychology and behavioral science courses to peer-counseling programs and resident life initiatives, Relationship Needs gives students a shared language for understanding themselves and others. With simple, science-backed guidance, it helps them reduce stress, navigate conflict, and form lasting, meaningful connections.
With its blend of empirical behavioral research and accessible storytelling, Relationship Needs is ideal as a supplemental text for psychology or sociology classes. It also works well in honors seminars, where students are encouraged to explore the intersection of personal development, emotional intelligence, and social dynamics.
Relationship Needs is available for bulk purchasing by colleges, universities, and student organizations. Discounts start at 15 copies, with free shipping for orders of 100+ copies.

“Most authors present the word Needs as if we are supposed to know what it means. Relationship Needs is the only book that clearly explains what our Needs are—and how to meet them to stay in love.”
–Claire H.

“Finally being able to express a long-unmet Need is such a relief. It really feels like a weight lifted. This message is so important. Our Needs don’t change—and we’re not selfish for having them or speaking them aloud.”
–Kyle L.
