About the Author Gemma Cribb is a Clinical Psychologist who has been working in private practice in Sydney's CBD for 10 years.

Product Description Being a single woman in our society is tough. We live in a world that regards 'happily ever after' as being in a couple, and encourages single women to work hard to 'improve' themselves, or 'settle' if Mr Right doesn't show up. Women are bombarded with books and advice on how to meet the perfect man, how to understand him better; and even how to change themselves, in the hopes that they can overcome their sorry single status... This book is different. Doing Single Well acknowledges and supports the lived experience of single women today, and encourages you to stay true to yourself. It addresses the feelings of loneliness, rejection, depression, and anxiety that are often associated with being single, and provides practical exercises and advice to help you feel happier and more self-confident, without the need to change who you are. Doing Single Well will help you find fulfilment in your single life, and if you want a partner, to wait for one who is right for you. Wherever you are on your journey, this book will help you join the growing ranks of satisfied single women who, if they choose to date, delight in doing so. Book Description Doing Single Well validates and encourages single women to stay true to themselves. The book addresses, from a psychological framework, the feelings of loneliness and rejection that are often associated with being single and offers practical exercises to achieve happiness and self-confidence.
