At Kindred Hearts Healing Counseling, I use the Gottman Method Couples Therapy to help partners strengthen their relationships, improve communication, and rebuild trust. As a licensed clinical social worker, Kendra Richardson, LCSW, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space where couples can work through challenges and deepen their connection.
All sessions are conducted via secure telehealth, so you and your partner can participate from the comfort and privacy of your home—whether you’re sitting together or connecting from different locations.
How the Gottman Method Works
Developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, this approach is grounded in decades of research on what makes relationships succeed—or struggle. The Gottman Method focuses on three key areas:
- Friendship and Connection – Strengthening the foundation of your relationship by building respect, appreciation, and emotional closeness.
- Conflict Management – Learning tools to navigate disagreements in a healthier way, reducing criticism, defensiveness, and resentment.
- Shared Meaning – Developing rituals, values, and goals that give your relationship purpose and alignment.
In therapy, we’ll use structured exercises, proven strategies, and open dialogue to help you and your partner shift away from destructive patterns and build a more supportive, lasting partnership.
When Couples Can Benefit from the Gottman Method
This method can help couples who are:
- Struggling with recurring arguments or communication issues
- Working to rebuild trust after betrayal or infidelity
- Feeling emotionally disconnected or distant
- Navigating intimacy or closeness concerns
- Preparing for or adjusting to major life transitions
- Hoping to strengthen an already solid relationship
