Quentin Shires is a doctoral-level mental health clinician with over 15 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families untangle the messiness of love, dating, marriage, and everything in between. Throughout his career, he's guided clients through breakups, breakthroughs, commitment issues, communication breakdowns, emotional glow-ups, and the occasional ""accidental texting of an ex."" Known for blending clinical insight with compassion (and the occasional side-eye at toxic behavior), Quentin brings a grounded, relatable, and refreshingly honest perspective to modern relationships. His work has empowered thousands to set boundaries, raise standards, and stop mistaking mixed signals for mystery. After over a decade of watching brilliant people fall for walking red flags in fitted jeans, Quentin finally wrote the book that says what your therapist wants to say but legally can't. This is self-help with bite. And maybe a little wine.
