Reinventing Relationship Therapy through the Duo Coaching Framework introduces a revolutionary approach that replaces outdated single-therapist models with innovative dual-therapist collaboration, transforming how we understand and practice relationship therapy in the modern world.This book systematically examines four key areas: robust theoretical foundations integrating systems theory, attachment theory, and neuroscience; a critical analysis of conventional therapy limitations including the restrictive "therapeutic hour" and single-therapist models; the innovative Duo Coaching framework featuring two therapists working collaboratively with couples in extended 3.5-hour sessions across a structured six-session framework; and practical implementation guidance for integrating multiple therapeutic modalities. Wilkie addresses how digital technology and evolving social norms reshape contemporary relationships, demanding new therapeutic responses that bridge individual healing with broader societal well-being. This framework demonstrates measurable success in helping couples achieve lasting transformation through innovative session structures, blending of multiple modalities, dual-therapist collaboration, and comprehensive between-session support, providing immediately applicable tools for enhancing therapeutic effectiveness. This transdisciplinary approach offers relationship therapists, academics, and students an evidence-informed alternative to conventional practice.

"Dr Wilkie has produced a long overdue challenge to the orthodoxy of relationship therapy. This groundbreaking book offers a new way to look at the complexity of human relationships and provide a roadmap that offers clarity, potential and ultimately transformation for couples facing the challenges of modern living. Having wrestled with couples therapy over the years this work is quite simply a breath of fresh air. I have much pleasure in fully endorsing this endeavour."Dr Keith Jones, Psychotherapist and Organisational Development Consultant "Reinvent challenges the conventional same old thinking and provides a powerful alternative that’s proven to make a sustainable difference in couples relationships. A must have resource for anyone working in this field."Nikki Owen, Author and Transformationalist "Reinvent: Reinventing Relationship Therapy through the Duo Coaching Framework has emerged from doctoral research by the author and rigorously peer reviewed by a doctoral examining panel who commended the thesis and the author’s thoughtful research and development of a new concept and practice in relationship coaching. It is an excellent addition to his current and popular publications Reset and Recover. Compared to other modalities in the arena of psychological interventions, from counselling to coaching, relationship therapy has been slow to evolve to meet the challenges of contemporary times. There are a number of highlights in Reinvent but three standouts are first, how generous this work is in its attention to inviting a range of practitioners in diverse modalities to expand their practices to collaborate in duo coaching. Second is the link between appropriate interventions which duo coaching offers and the collateral benefits of reparative relationships and their role in social cohesion, health and well being. Third, and very importantly is the practical hope Reinvent extends to coaches and clients with its respectful approach, its optimism and its humanity informed by the author’s way of being in the world."Professor Kate Maguire, Social anthropologist, Trauma psychotherapist, Head of Transdisciplinary Research Programmes, Middlesex University
