Couples Therapy:
The Gottman Method
I could nerd out about the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy for hours. The Gottman Method is a research-based approach to relationships based on Dr. John Gottman’s four decades of research focused on what makes marriages succeed or fail. From this research, he and his wife, Dr. Julie Schwartz Gottman, have created a therapy that emphasizes a “nuts and bolts” approach to improving relationships.
This method is designed to help teach specific tools to deepen friendship and intimacy in your relationship. This therapy focuses on emotion, skill building for managing conflict, developing new skills for enhancing friendship, and helping the couple to create a system of shared meaning together. Interventions are designed to help couples strengthen their relationships in three primary areas: friendship, conflict management, and creation of shared meaning. The interventions are designed to increase closeness and intimacy are used to improve friendship, deepen emotional connection, and create changes which enhances the couples shared goals. To help you productively manage conflicts, you will be given methods to manage "resolvable problems" and dialogue about "gridlocked" (or perpetual) issues. We will also work together to help you appreciate your relationship's strengths and to gently navigate through its vulnerabilities.
