I am able to utilize Gottman Method Therapy when working with couples.
Creating change in your life is hard work and asking for help is even harder when you've tried to do it alone. Having distress in one part of life can create waves in other parts. I believe that therapy can provide you with the tools and confidence to face these changes. Together we can work on those hard moments in life and turn them into opportunities for change and development. Working together to dispel those waves around you can create a more peaceful and fulfilling life.

Finding help during distress can feel overwhelming, but ultimately it is empowering. You are stronger than you think. The opportunities for real change are opened when there is humility and a deep desire to heal. Each client needs to work at their own pace and manner, but intent for growth is key. Reaching fulfillment through the realization of personal talent looks different for everyone, but it is an exciting process to witness, once a client is ready. I find joy witnessing growth take place over time and I continue to be amazed by the strength and resilience of the individuals I work with.

Gottman Method Therapists

How does the Gottman method work?

One of the core doctrines of the Gottman method is that negative emotions hurt relationships about five times more than positive emotions help them. Thus, couples require five times more positive interactions than negative interactions with each other. The therapist will guide clients on how to improve communication and understanding of each other to manage conflict and have their emotional needs met. The therapist will also advise couples on how to repair relations with each other when conflict arises, and therefore avoid lasting damage.

Is the Gottman method evidence-based?

Yes, this method is an evidence-based approach to couples therapy. The method is based on more than 40 years of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, the psychologists who developed the method. The Gottmans analyzed decades of data to draw conclusions about what types of interactions are likely to lead to specific results, and which interventions are most likely to lead to success. Studies have found that this approach leads to improvements in relationship satisfaction, intimacy, communication skills, and a lower rate of divorce.

How long does the Gottman method take?

The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and an average course of treatment is around 10 sessions. In some cases, such as for couples dealing with a critical problem, the therapist will suggest an intensive course of treatment, with daily sessions over the first two to four days. Treatment is complete when the couple is satisfied and has met the goals they’ve set, and when the therapist believes they have the skills to continue on their own.

Is the Gottman method effective?

Through the Gottman method, couples can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. This treatment has been used for more than 40 years; the method is supported by empirical research, including randomized controlled trials that have demonstrated effectiveness in improving relationship outcomes for couples. Like any talk therapy, success or failure depends in large part on how committed the clients are to making positive changes and working toward results.
