Wrestling with life's issues can be challenging - especially when trying to do it alone. It can be overwhelming and/or painful attempting to navigate through the questions and uncertainties that sometimes come up. In 20+ years working with diverse populations in the helping professions, in all the stories I've heard, what typically stands out is the need to know and understand self, the things that happen to us, how it all fits together - making meaning, and how to move forward and find a sense of purpose. "And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom" - Anais Nin

Most people who reach out for therapy feel overwhelmed, stuck, or tired of the same patterns playing out in their life or relationships. On the surface, things may look fine, but internally something feels off. You might feel anxious, disconnected, or unsure why you keep reacting the way you do.
I’m Zac Spoon, a licensed professional clinical counselor in Troy, Ohio. A lot of what we struggle with takes shape in relationships, and healing often happens there too. In our work, we slow things down and make sense of these patterns so they don’t keep repeating.

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.
