Female Marriage Counselor Challenges Male Psychiatrist to a Diablog Duel
On January 19th, Betsy Sansby, a licensed marriage & family therapist from Minnesota, and Scott Haltzman, MD, a Yale-trained psychiatrist from Rhode Island will team up for the launch of an on-going Diablog about men, women, sex, marriage, and more at: http://www.theouchkit.com/diablog.php. Visitors will be able to join in the conversation by submitting their own comments and questions to the experts.
(PRWEB) January 19, 2005 -- Betsy Sansby came up with the idea for the
Diablog after finding herself in a heated email exchange with Scott Haltzman
that generated lots of sparks. “What started out as a simple question to Dr.
Scott,” said Sansby, “turned into a hot debate about what men and women really
want from each other, and how to go about getting it.” When Sansby showed the
email exchange to some friends, they all went wild. “Suddenly,” said Sansby, “my
email box was flooded with comments. Once you start talking about sex,
everybody's got strong feelings they're desperate to share.” That’s when the
idea for the Diablog was hatched.
Sansby is the creator of The OuchKit,
an ingenious set of exchangeable cards that helps couples—and especially
men—identify and express their feelings to each other, without blowing up or
shutting down. She is also the co-author of seven books and writes "Ask Betsy,"
a popular, on-line relationship advice column: http://www.showmomthemoney.com/relationships.asp.
Haltzman
has gained international recognition for his work in support of marriage and
husbands. He has appeared in Time, Glamour, Woman's World Weekly, the Chicago
Tribune, and is a regular presenter at the annual SmartMarriages conference. Dr.
Haltzman’s book, “The Secrets of Happily Married Men,” will be published in
January of 2006.
“My hope,” said Sansby, “is that the Diablog format
will give men and women a chance to talk about how they really feel and what
they really want from their partners, without having to censor themselves.”
Several other experts in the field, like Michele Weiner-Davis, author of The
Sex-Starved Marriage, have already been invited to join in the conversation.

OuchKit, call: (952) 933-0942, or visit http://www.theouchkit.com. You can also read Sansby's
