The Gottman Method is a research-based approach to improving relationships. It was developed by the psychologists Drs. John and Julie Gottman. They are famous because they are able to predict which couples are more likely to get divorced with 91% accuracy.
- Dr. Levin uses and recommends this method for couples therapy because of the extensive body of research supporting its effectiveness.
- At the start of therapy, members of the couple separately complete a Gottman Relationship Checkup, an online test that assesses areas of strength and weakness in the relationship. This helps with planning the therapy and prognosticating.
- Gottman studied how successful couples communicate in an apartment “lab” that he designed with video cameras to capture every utterance. You can read more about this in his most famous book, The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work. This will given you a good idea if this therapy is right for you.
- Dr. Levin studied Gottman Method therapy with Drs. John and Julie Gottman.
