The Gottman Approach (for Couples)

For improving communication, trust, and emotional connection

Relationships can feel challenging at times, whether you’re navigating frequent arguments, emotional distance, or trust issues. The Gottman Method, based on decades of research, provides practical, science-backed tools to help couples build stronger, healthier connections.

How will we help you and your partner accomplish your goals?
If communication is a struggle, we might start by using the “Speaker-Listener Technique”—a structured way to have meaningful conversations without interruptions or defensiveness. You and your partner will each have a chance to express your thoughts and feelings while the other listens, helping both of you feel heard and understood.

Through this and other research-based exercises, we’ll focus on:

✓ Strengthening communication so you and your partner can talk openly and honestly
✓ Rebuilding trust through intentional connection and small, meaningful actions
✓ Managing conflict in a way that creates understanding, not more frustration
✓ Deepening friendship and intimacy so your relationship feels fulfilling and secure

This approach isn’t about just talking about your relationship—it’s about learning how to make it stronger with real, practical tools you can use every day.
