What is Gottman Couples Therapy?
The Gottman Institute is a research-based approach to strengthening relationships. This approach has been developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman who are researchers and clinical psychologists using 40 years of research and working with more than 3,000 couples. Through their work they have developed scientifically proven methods of saving troubled relationships.
Our couple counselling methods are based on the Gottmans’ life work, as well our own training and personal experiences. We provide effective relationship counselling to help couples to improve their relationship, given their unique situation. No relationship is ever the same.
Our team are couples and marriage therapists that uses Gottman Method Couples Therapy and have completed Level 1 and Level 2 Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
What is different about Gottman Method Couples Therapy?
Gottman’s approach is designed to teach specific tools that deepen friendship and intimacy in your relationship. You will receive help, support, and research-proven methods to work through your conflicts, and to better manage your “resolvable problems” and “gridlocked” issues.
Managing conflict and learning to better communicate with you partner is important, and so too is learning to engage with each other when not in conflict. You will learn how to rediscover the camaraderie that you once had in your relationship. In successful and happy partnerships, couples support each other’s hopes, dreams, and aspirations, and build a sense of purpose in their relationship with honour and respect. The strength of your friendship predicts the future of your relationship, as it is fundamental to your relationship’s foundation.
