Couples and Marriage Therapy
Couples' therapy is a type of therapy unlike any other. Seeking out help in a relationship can be challenging when we hope "we can work it out ourselves". However, couples' work focuses on the various components of life that impact this incredibly important relationship. The relationships that we have experienced as children, our first understandings of love and intimacy, and platonic friendships can impact how we interpret and engage with out partner.
The Gottman Method focuses on skill building to increase the attachment and connection with your partner, and is backed by decades of research. By learning how to hear our partner and be heard, we can improve your overall satisfaction. To learn more about this particular style, visit https://www.gottman.com/about/the-gottman-method/.
