I am a registered associate marriage and family therapist using the Gottman Method to work with couples. I believe that the toughest partners to get into therapy are men. The Gottman Method is an effective framework that's easy to follow. I get that going to therapy is not a traditionally masculine activity. My approach comes from the perspective that men haven't learned too many new relationship skills over the past 50 years while women have been making significant improvements in their participation the entire time. So, men, it's our turn to step it up in relationships. Men aren't incapable of being emotionally intimate with their wives, they simply have not been taught how to do so. That's where I come in. I love helping both spouses learn how to stop avoiding conflict while being able to address issues without spiraling into a storm. These are critical skills for men and women.
