About our wellness and therapy
At Our Wellness & Therapy, we offer compassionate, evidence-based couples therapy designed to support partners through the complexities of their relationship. We understand that each couple is unique—with their own strengths, struggles, and shared history. Whether you're seeking to strengthen your bond, navigate conflict, or heal from relational stress, our approach helps you build a deeper, more fulfilling connection.
We are proud to integrate the Gottman Method, a widely respected and research-backed approach to couples therapy. Developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, this method draws on decades of scientific research and focuses on building the foundations of a healthy, lasting relationship.
Key Principles in Our Approach:
- Building Effective Communication
One of the core goals of couples therapy is to help partners communicate more openly and respectfully. Using Gottman Method tools such as the “soft start-up” and repair attempts, we guide couples to express their needs clearly, listen with empathy, and navigate conflict without blame or defensiveness. Improved communication strengthens trust, reduces resentment, and promotes deeper understanding. - Enhancing Emotional Connection and Intimacy
Emotional intimacy is vital to a thriving relationship. Through guided exercises and structured conversations, we help couples rebuild emotional closeness, increase affection, and reestablish a sense of safety and support. Whether you're recovering from a breach of trust or simply feeling distant, we support you in reconnecting on a meaningful level. - Managing Conflict Constructively
Disagreements are natural—but how you handle them makes all the difference. The Gottman Method emphasizes conflict management strategies that help couples stay connected even during difficult conversations. We help you recognize negative patterns (like the "Four Horsemen" of criticism, defensiveness, contempt, and stonewalling) and replace them with healthier, more constructive responses. - Creating Shared Meaning and Future Goals
Lasting relationships are built on shared values, rituals, and goals. We support couples in identifying their individual and collective aspirations, clarifying their relationship vision, and working as a team toward a fulfilling future. Whether it's parenting, career transitions, or planning for the years ahead, we help you align and take purposeful action together.
Couples therapy at Our Wellness & Therapy is collaborative, non-judgmental, and tailored to your unique relationship. Whether you’re feeling stuck in recurring patterns, dealing with a major life transition, or simply want to deepen your connection, we’re here to walk alongside you with evidence-based tools, compassionate support, and a commitment to your growth as a couple.
If you’re ready to invest in your relationship and build a stronger, more connected future together, we’re here to help.
