Discover Gottman's Seven Principles of Healthy relationships and proven strategies for integrating them into your lives together.
LEARN TO:
Foster safety, connection, and fun
Experience physical and emotional attunement to build trust
Enhance body-mind-awareness for greater self and other empathy
It's important to note that Gottman's principles are not limited to people facing specific issues or challenges. They can be applied by anyone who wishes to improve their relationships, enhance their communication, and build a strong foundation for a happy and fulfilling partnership – regardless of their current relationship status or dynamics.
Additionally, these principles can be applied by people of any gender, sexual orientation, or cultural background.
This program is based upon the New York Times best seller The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work by Dr. John Gottman, Ph.D.
The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work is the culmination of Dr. John Gottman’s lifelong work: an overview of concepts, behaviors, and skills based on scientific research that guide couples on the path toward a harmonious and long-lasting relationship. Gottman’s 7 Principles is a relationship enrichment program that uses research-based marriage counseling techniques to improve couples communication skills and other relationship building strategies, with the goal of improving relationship satisfaction.

No! Many who attend our workshops have never been to therapy, or are considering going to therapy. It is a great way to test what it would be like to try couples therapy, and often people do go on to start therapy, but it is not necessary. The Seven Principles workshop is a great way to learn and grow in your relationships in a half-day setting facilitated by licensed therapists.
-
This workshop is psycho-educational, and is not therapy. However, for those who are seeking to strengthen their relationship, build better communication skills, foster more understanding in their relationships, or who don't have the time to commit to regular therapy sessions, this workshop can be a great alternative to therapy.
It is important to note, however, that our facilitators will not be working on specific, individual issues; rather they will be providing the tools needed to co-create a successful relationship.
