The Gottman Method Sessions

Understanding the Gottman Method in Relationship Therapy

Enhancing love, affection, and intimacy between couples is at the heart of the Gottman Method, developed by the renowned psychologist John Gottman. His groundbreaking research highlighted destructive behaviors like criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling, which can damage relationships. By addressing these behaviors, couples can make significant strides toward a healthier relationship.

In Northern Virginia, our Gottman Method therapy focuses on breaking these negative patterns, fostering a deeper friendship, managing conflicts, and creating shared meaning. Our experienced therapists use proven tools and exercises to help you replace harmful habits with positive, nurturing actions.
