Gottman Method Therapy in Mooresville, NC

The Gottman Method is a research-based approach to couples therapy developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. Grounded in decades of scientific study, this method helps couples deepen emotional connection, improve communication, and build lasting trust. Through structured techniques and guided conversations, partners learn to recognize and break negative patterns, express needs in healthy ways, and nurture appreciation and intimacy.

In Gottman Method therapy, you’ll explore the dynamics that support or strain your relationship — including friendship, conflict management, and shared meaning. Using tools like the “Sound Relationship House”, you’ll gain practical strategies to strengthen your bond and rebuild connection.

This approach is highly effective for couples facing recurring conflict, communication breakdowns, infidelity recovery, or transitions such as marriage, parenting, or major life changes. At Stafford and Associates Counseling, we use the Gottman Method to help couples in the Lake Norman and Charlotte, NC area move from disconnection and defensiveness toward mutual understanding, respect, and lasting partnership.
