What Is the Gottman Method?

The Gottman Method is a structured and scientifically grounded approach to couples therapy developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. Based on decades of research, this method helps couples:

• Build and maintain healthy communication patterns
• Manage conflict with empathy and understanding
• Increase emotional intimacy and connection
• Develop strategies to handle stressors and life transitions together

Using tools such as the Gottman Relationship Checkup, couples gain insight into their relationship dynamics and learn practical skills to strengthen their bond. Chanel Wainscott integrates these techniques to provide personalized and impactful in person and online couples counselling.
