Speaking with the Heart Transforming Your Relationship and Communication with Compassion and Connection

helps people recognize the power of communication.  It is one of our most important skills that we have, and yet we don’t consider our understanding, approach, belief, and therefore, miss our possibilities.  Living with a paranoid schizophrenic mother gave Dr. Heather a unique and powerful awareness that no one has the same reality, though we believe we do.  Utilizing this revolutionary awareness has allowed her to transform communication within self and within all other types of relationship.  This is the hidden key to acceptance.  And this is her mission to share.


As a relationship expert and best selling author, Dr. Heather Browne has worked with thousands of individuals and couples in psychotherapy.  Speaking with the Heart, her recently released book, is the message she shares in her TedX and keynote speeches.
How can we care as we share?
It’s a talent and also a powerful gift worth exploring. She’s published in hundreds of journals, has an active TikTok channel, has been featured on ABC-7 news, was the relationship expert on KDOC Daybreak OC, and is published in Inc., Toronto Sun, Thriving Family Magazine,  Light + Life, BRAINZ, Scary Mommy, and Psychology Today.

    Book Review

Reviewed by Jennie More for Readers' Favorite

Speaking With the Heart by Dr. Heather Browne, PsyD, LMFT provides insights on how to save your marriage. Browne gets to the heart of communication, stripping it down to its essentials. With each chapter, you become more aware of yourself, your strengths, your shortcomings, your past, and how all this affects your relationship. This newfound self-awareness enables you to hear and see your partner in a different light, and you realize that you have been talking and listening wrong all along. Browne insists that marriage does not need to end in divorce if both parties are committed and choose each other daily. This book includes insightful revelations and exercises to help couples reconnect. Browne empowers couples to work toward love, compassion, and respect.

Speaking With the Heart by Dr. Heather Browne is a candid and captivating must-read for all married couples to help them create or maintain open lines of communication. Browne’s tone is warm, caring, and supportive, like the friend you always call at the end of a distressing day. She makes you feel as if there is always a solution, and she provides it with solid reasoning that is bound to win over anyone, even those entirely against counseling. Her suggestions are feasible and not time-consuming. It is an easy-to-read and well-structured book. Even though the target audience is married couples, you can apply these communication techniques to any relationship. I certainly recommend it, especially for those facing troubles with finances, money, or intimate issues. It is memorable and enlightening.
