I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, as well as a Certified Gottman Couples Therapist with a practice operating in Bergen County, New Jersey. The knowledge, behavioral and emotional, gained through working with a Certified Gottman Therapist is invaluable to people in all states of a relationship. I believe that the Gottman Method is advantageous to all couples, pre-marital and marital. While most people enter couple's therapy after many years of distress and frustration, the interventions and skills learned are equally beneficial to couples at the beginning stage of their relationship.

Do you often feel inadequate? Do you find yourself worrying or feeling down on your luck? Does maintaining relationships feel harder than they ought to be? These feelings often result from how we have learned to see ourselves based on past experiences and relationships. Difficult relationships in our past can leave us with unhelpful and unhealthy ideas about ourselves that is hard to change. And Yes, the past is very powerful, but it does need to determine our future. Using a psychodynamic approach, I try to help my clients feel less entangled by their past and ultimately more in control of their lives.

For many couples, I'm the last stop. They've been to so many therapists already that they wonder, "Why would you be any different?" It's simple: I've been there, done that. In addition to my extensive training, I understand firsthand what you're going through - whether that's dating life, an engagement, a brand new marriage, a struggling marriage, a divorce, or blending families. I know what it takes to get through it and come out stronger on the other side. And I'm proud to say I have an amazing success rate with my clients.

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.
