Couples Therapy

Gottman Method:
Science-backed couples therapy

Love is an art and a science.

Benefit from over 50 years of clinical research on building and maintaining healthy love relationships.

This is for you if :

  • You want specific relationship skills and tools to use in your everyday life

  • You are looking for evidence-based therapy that will give you direction and keep you accountable

  • You are ready to transform the negative, critical or tense moments at home into times of curiosity, self-reflection and calm communication

  • You understand that improving your relationship will take intentional effort outside of session

  • Part of you wants to complain about your partner only, but deep down you understand that the relationship will not change unless you change. Yes, both of you.

Areas of Focus

  • Conflict erodes basic respect. Reestablish fondness and appreciation. Create rituals of connection to maintain the foundational friendship all love relationships rely on.

  • Understand how physiology impacts the way you respond to your partner. Learn to regulate your nervous system in order to listen and respond from a place of calm. Use the six skills of conflict resolution to work through any issue.

  • Most fights are not about money, kids or sex. They are about the desire for emotional closeness. Learn the keys to unlock deep connection. Feel close to your partner and establish a healthy sex life.

  • Remember fun? Learn to relax and enjoy each other again. Once you feel more understood, appreciated and close, begin to incorporate playfulness and laughter regularly, even in busy schedules.
