A husband-wife team, they have together developed "Voice Dialogue," a powerful and innovative approach to recognizing and integrating the many sub-personalities that exist within each of us. In this conversation they talk about our primary selves and disowned selves, especially with reference to relationship, bonding patterns, and how we can use "Voice Dialogue," as a tool for self-transformation either by itself or in tandem with other methods and techniques.

This highly acclaimed, groundbreaking work describes the Psychology of Selves and the Voice Dialogue method. Internationally renowned psychologists Hal and Sidra Stone introduce the reader to the Pusher, Critic, Protector/Controller, and all the other members of your inner family. They have refined the process to the point where voice dialogue is considered one of the most effective techniques in psychology today.

The Inner Critic is one of the inner selves that Hal and Sidra Stone have identified through decades of Voice Dialogue therapy; and it can be a very destructive voice unless we learn how to identify and deal with it. Here they tell us the differences between men and women in this regard; how to recognize and understand the Inner Critic; and most of all how to integrate it in a constructive, healing way.
