Gottman Method Therapists in Fort Worth, TX
With couples, I use the Gottman Method to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and foster closeness.
I specialize in depression, self-harm, grief, and couples counseling in Fort Worth and virtually across Texas. My ideal clients feel stuck, weighed down by loss, disconnection, or pain they can’t quite name, and want to move forward but don’t know how to start. Maybe you’ve been told you should be “over it” by now. You may feel alone in what you’re carrying, unsure if what you’re experiencing is normal. My goal is to create a sacred space where I can walk beside you, without pressure to rush your healing or perform being “fine.” Real change takes time, and you don’t have to do it alone.

I work with men trapped in cycles of pornography or sexual addiction — carrying shame, hiding it from their spouse, and wondering if change is possible. As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) with EMDR training, I help men and couples move from secrecy and hopelessness toward honesty, healing, and restored trust. I bring clinical expertise and a Christian perspective to this work, because lasting change involves not just behavior, but the heart behind it. You don’t have to keep fighting this alone. I also work with trauma, depression, and substance use, and see individuals and couples both in-person and online in Fort Worth.

Using Gottman Method, attachment-based, and family systems approaches, I help you identify what drives the conflict, interrupt damaging patterns, and choose a practical path forward.
Your marriage may feel like it is hanging by a thread.

I have advanced training in family systems, the Gottman Method, and Brainspotting, working at the intersection of relationships and the parts of life that never came with a manual.
Healing doesn't have to be polished to be powerful. Things may seem dark. If you're feeling broken or like your relationships are beyond repair, you're not alone, and you don't have to figure this out on your own. Many of the people I work with feel like they are carrying too much- grief, trauma, emotional responsibility, or the weight of having to hold it all together. They've spent years adapting to relationships that didn't work, and they are ready to try something different. I help clients navigate their darkest moments, providing tools to rebuild their lives and relationships and find a way forward.

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.
