EMDR therapy, movement, the Safe & Sound Protocol, Sandtray therapy, Somatic work, Art and Play, Brainspotting, Gottman Method, and more offer transformative effects toward a better, more fulfilling life.
Feeling stuck? Are you in the grips of anxiety, trapped in the depths of depression, or oscillating between both? Trouble with making decisions, relationships, focusing, functioning in daily life, giving or receiving love, or engaging in activities that were once part of your everyday routine? Are you self-medicating through substances or behaviors that are leading you down a harmful path? The truth is, when we experience trauma, especially if it occurs early in life, our nervous system can become stuck in survival states—whether it's heightened in hyperarousal or diminished in hypoarousal. I would love to help you finally heal.

Another night, another fight. Lately, it feels like you and your partner are on different pages and can’t agree on anything. Life is tense. This person you fell in love with, once upon a time, now feels like a stranger. You’re feeling disconnected and lost. There is no intimacy and the spark that once was, has faded. You want to reconnect with your partner and fall in love with your best friend again, but you don’t even know where or how to start. It feels hopeless.

Gottman Method Therapists
How does the Gottman method work?
One of the core doctrines of the Gottman method is that negative emotions hurt relationships about five times more than positive emotions help them. Thus, couples require five times more positive interactions than negative interactions with each other. The therapist will guide clients on how to improve communication and understanding of each other to manage conflict and have their emotional needs met. The therapist will also advise couples on how to repair relations with each other when conflict arises, and therefore avoid lasting damage.
Is the Gottman method evidence-based?
Yes, this method is an evidence-based approach to couples therapy. The method is based on more than 40 years of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, the psychologists who developed the method. The Gottmans analyzed decades of data to draw conclusions about what types of interactions are likely to lead to specific results, and which interventions are most likely to lead to success. Studies have found that this approach leads to improvements in relationship satisfaction, intimacy, communication skills, and a lower rate of divorce.
How long does the Gottman method take?
The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and an average course of treatment is around 10 sessions. In some cases, such as for couples dealing with a critical problem, the therapist will suggest an intensive course of treatment, with daily sessions over the first two to four days. Treatment is complete when the couple is satisfied and has met the goals they’ve set, and when the therapist believes they have the skills to continue on their own.
Is the Gottman method effective?
Through the Gottman method, couples can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. This treatment has been used for more than 40 years; the method is supported by empirical research, including randomized controlled trials that have demonstrated effectiveness in improving relationship outcomes for couples. Like any talk therapy, success or failure depends in large part on how committed the clients are to making positive changes and working toward results.
