Gottman Couples Therapy

BE HEARD. FIND CONNECTION.

I don’t feel understood.

Many things get in the way of a fulfilling, deep relationship. Sometimes, life events or personal choices result in loud fights and heightened conflict. Other times, closeness can disappear slowly and quietly. Life gets busy, and you wake up one day wondering how you grew so far apart.

Whether serious trust was lost or you’re just missing the zest and connection you used to share, these challenges can drastically impact your life.

“I want to actually enjoy life with my partner.”

THE GOTTMAN METHOD

ABOUT THE APPROACH.

The Gottman Method is a successful therapeutic approach developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, after four decades of research with over 3,000 couples.

What We Focus On.

We focus on developing friendship, managing conflict, and creating shared meaning. Gottman studies show that these are pillars of a successful relationship. We’ll walk through exercises and activities that help you understand each other and equip you with tools to deepen your relationship throughout your everyday life.

Why I Choose Gottman.

I love that it isn’t just someone’s personal opinion on what ruins or fixes relationships, but rather cold, hard data. Over 40 years of research backs this method.

IS THIS RIGHT FOR US?

IT MAY BE IF…

YOU FEEL STUCK.

What you’ve been doing is not working, and you are tired of banging your head against the wall.

YOU'RE WILLING TO DO THE WORK.

Both of you desire to feel connected again or to end the constant conflict, and you want to do what it takes to get there.

YOU WANT TO MOVE QUICKLY.

If you’re experiencing issues that need to be dealt with soon or just want to share an immersive experience with your partner.

IT MAY NOT BE IF…

You’re not exclusive.

There is an undisclosed or current affair that either partner is unwilling to give up. This could include a physical or emotional affair. Both partners need to be all-in.

There is abuse in the relationship.

There is serious violence in your relationship, threats by one or both partners that serious violence might occur, or fear of serious violence.

You are dealing with addiction.

One of you has an active alcohol and/or drug addiction that is not being addressed by a recovery program.

You have suicidal or homicidal thoughts.

Either partner is seriously thinking of harming themselves or others, or has a history of serious suicide attempts or harm to others.
