More than 30 years of research have culminated in the theory of the Sound Relationship House. In the simplest terms John Gottman discovered what makes relationships work at their highest level, couples that he describes as the Masters of Relationships, as well as what makes relationships fail. Gottman therapy gives direction on how to build your Sound Relationship House.

If you want to get an idea of how all of this works, check out the New York Times bestselling book The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work. Dr. John Gottman writes in this book, “Although you may feel your situation is unique, we have found that all marital conflicts fall into two categories: Either they can be resolved, or they are perpetual, which means they will be part of your lives forever, in some form or another.” Gottman says that 69% of marital conflicts are perpetual problems, and these are of particular focus in much of the work performed by a Gottman-trained therapist. We can all learn how to better manage the perpetual problems in relationships.

The Gottman Method is designed to support couples across all economic, racial, sexual orientation, and cultural sectors. To learn more, go to the Gottman’s website at www.gottman.com. Find out if this process of therapy feels right for you.
