Gottman Therapy in Calgary
What is the Gottman Method?
Do you feel like communication with your partner often leads to misunderstanding or distance? Are you wanting to rebuild trust, strengthen your bond, or rediscover joy in your relationship? The Gottman Method might be right for you. The Gottman Method is a research-based approach to couples therapy that helps partners strengthen their relationship through improved communication, deeper understanding, and shared meaning. It focuses on building the foundations of trust, friendship, and emotional connection while giving couples practical tools to navigate conflict in healthy, respectful ways. Rather than focusing on blame, it helps partners understand each other’s needs and emotions, creating a supportive environment where both people feel seen and valued. Over time, couples learn how to repair disconnection, rekindle intimacy, and build a relationship that feels secure and fulfilling.
