About the Workshop and Retreat

When couples enter the therapy office, they sting with pain and despair. They look to the clinician to referee chronic conflicts, fix their partners, and rebuild burned bridges. Now, based on Dr. John Gottman's 35 years of compelling research with over 3,000 couples, there's a practical and highly effective approach to guiding these couples across the chasm that divides them. In this workshop, you will be provided with a research-based roadmap for helping couples to compassionately manage their conflicts, deepen their friendship and intimacy, and share their life purpose and dreams.


In this inspirational two-day workshop, you'll learn:


  1. New research-based assessments and

   effective interventions to help

   understand couples' struggles.


  1. Research-based strategies and tools

   to help couples successfully manage

   conflict.


  1. Skills that empower couples to

   dialogue about their worst gridlocked

   issues by uncovering their underlying

   dreams, history, and values.


  1. Methods to help couples process their

   fights and heal their hurts.


  1. Techniques for couples to deepen their

   intimacy and minimize relapse.
