My couples therapy clients are tired of fighting, and they’re tired of being disconnected. They are lonely, scared, sad, and angry that their vision of being coupled has not materialized. They feel unrecognized, and therefore unloved, by their partners. They may find communication is hindered by apathy or anger. Perhaps they’ve already decided to end things, and counseling is a last resort; or they are still committed to the relationship but know they need help.
The key to success with the Gottman Method is two-fold. It’s based on decades of hard research on 3000+ couples in Seattle since the 1970s. It’s also based on research data on each couple from each partner completing the online Gottman Relationship Check-Up, a 90-minute intake couple interview, 45-minute individual sessions, and optional MBTI.
I, myself, have tried and failed at more than one marriage. Had I known then what I know now about the Gottmans’ “Small Things Often” and “turning toward bids for connection,” I would still be married to my first husband. I empathize with most problems that couples face and can help you learn what your and your partner's needs are.

I use the Gottman Method of couples therapy. In conjunction with this, I often administer the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), which helps each member of a couple understand better who their partner is and what their own preferences are (Introversion vs Extraversion, Intuition vs Sensing, Feeling vs Thinking, and Judging vs Perceiving). Couples find this valuble.
