How sessions work

We combine EFT (emotion/attachment focus) with Gottman tools (practical exercises, conflict patterns, rituals of connection). Sessions are paced to keep both partners regulated and heard.

Session lengths: 60-minute and 90-minute options.

FAQs

  • Will you take sides? No—my role is to slow conflict, surface emotions, and help you reach each other.
  • Do we get homework? Yes—brief, practical exercises (communication, bids for connection, de-escalation).
  • Can we meet online? Yes—video sessions across BC.
  • Is Gottman the same as EFT? They complement each other: EFT focuses on attachment/emotion, Gottman adds skills and structure.
