Gottman Method couples therapy

If your conversations keep ending in criticism, defensiveness, or silence, it helps to look closely at how those moments unfold. The Gottman Method offers a structured way to assess a relationship and work on friendship, conflict, and the ways partners turn toward or away from each other.

Your therapist may ask about the history of your relationship, meet with you together and individually as part of an assessment, and use practical exercises in sessions or at home. The work can help you communicate more clearly, understand recurring disagreements, and make space for closeness again.

Methods are tools, not a script for every couple. We will consider what is happening in your particular relationship and what you want from therapy. Clinicians have different levels of Gottman training, so check the individual therapist profile for details.
