Couples Therapy

The Gottman Method of Couples Therapy is based on research that began in the 1970’s and continues to this day. The research has focused on what makes relationships succeed or fail. From this research, Drs. John and Julie Gottman have created a method of therapy that emphasizes a “nuts-and-bolts” approach to improving clients’ relationships.

​

This method is designed to help teach specific tools to deepen friendship and intimacy in your relationship. To help you productively manage conflicts, you will be given methods to manage “resolvable problems” and dialogue about “gridlocked” (or perpetual) issues. We will also work together to help you appreciate your relationship’s strengths and to gently navigate through its vulnerabilities.

Circle of Security

Circle of Security Parenting (COS-P) is a program designed to help parents understand and improve their ability to nurture secure attachment with their children. It's based on attachment theory, which explains how early relationships with caregivers can impact a child's emotional and social development. 


COS-P aims to enhance parents' capacity for caregiving and help them understand and respond to their children's needs more effectively. 


COS-P is particularly helpful for parents of young children (0-5), foster parents, early learning providers, and parents with worries and concerns about their own or their children's emotional wellbeing.
