Connect with each other. Meet couples. Sharing optional. Practical. Fundamental. Gottman Method Couples Therapy used. Being part of a couple can be hard work... Here is a time to resolve negativity... Be prepared to welcome new changes, new lessons, new adventures. An opportunity to make a good relationship even better, to grow, to change, to deepen healthy relationships, and to seek change in troubled relationships... "If you're interested, you'll do what's convenient. If you're committed, you'll do whatever it takes." By John Assara

Gottman's Bringing Baby Home - Parenthood
A Program for New Parents Experiencing the Transition to Parenthood. Includes materials to keep and use: one spiral bound Couples Workbook, Appendix A with Selected Exercises, 6 colored card desks for at home application of principles: Fathers, Open-Ended Questions, Expressing Needs, Softened Start-Up, Love Maps, Love Maps for Couples with Kids. A great resource for parents! This can also be tailored to be applied to blended families. As I have been divorced, to single parent, to remarriage with new children, I personally understand the challenges and complexities of new families merging together. Difficult, yet possible to thrive.
