Understanding the Gottman Method
The Gottman Method is based on extensive research examining the behaviors and interactions of couples.

This knowledge forms the foundation of the Gottman Method, which emphasizes:
- Emotional connection: Building a strong emotional bond through open communication, empathy, and affection.
- Conflict management: Developing healthy strategies for resolving disagreements and preventing escalation.
- Creating shared meaning: Fostering a sense of connection and purpose within the relationship.
