Gottman Couples Counseling
Grounded in over 40 years of research by the Gottman Institute. Moreover, Gottman Couples Counseling helps partners build stronger connections, resolve conflict with respect, and create a lasting, meaningful relationship.
What Is Gottman Couples Counseling?
Specifically, the Gottman Method is a scientifically validated approach to couples therapy developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. Importantly, it is based on decades of research studying what makes relationships thrive — and what causes them to break down. Consequently, through structured assessments and evidence-based interventions, Gottman therapy helps couples deepen their friendship, manage conflict constructively, and build shared meaning in their relationship.
Furthermore, at New Reflections Counseling, our therapists are trained in Gottman-informed techniques and tailor each session to the unique dynamics of your relationship.
What Are the Core Gottman Concepts We Use?
Additionally, our therapists integrate key Gottman principles into every session to help your relationship thrive:
Sound Relationship House
Notably, this approach provides a research-based framework for building trust, commitment, and a strong relational foundation.
The Four Horsemen
Specifically, this involves identifying and replacing criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling with healthier communication patterns.
Emotional Attunement
In addition, learning to turn toward your partner’s bids for connection and respond with empathy and understanding is central to emotional attunement.
Conflict Management
Furthermore, conflict management focuses on moving from gridlock to dialogue on perpetual problems while finding compromise on solvable ones.
Love Maps
Additionally, deepening your knowledge of your partner’s inner world — their dreams, fears, hopes, and history — is what love maps are all about.
Shared Meaning
Moreover, creating rituals of connection, shared goals, and a sense of purpose together as a couple builds lasting meaning.
