Wendy uses Gottman Method Couples Therapy, along with attachment-focused work, to help partners understand patterns that keep them stuck. The process can include joint sessions, individual meetings, and the Gottman Relationship Checkup.
Gottman Method Couples Therapy is grounded in decades of relationship research and offers a practical framework for understanding what helps couples thrive. The approach looks at friendship, communication, conflict, trust, and the shared meaning partners create together.
Rather than treating every disagreement as a problem to eliminate, the work helps couples identify the patterns underneath conflict and build more effective ways to respond. Assessment can help clarify the relationship’s strengths and the places where focused attention can make the greatest difference.
Even caring partners can find themselves in the same painful argument, growing quieter, or feeling more like roommates than a team. Couples therapy creates a structured place to slow the pattern down, understand what each person is protecting, and make room for the relationship beneath the conflict.
The work can focus on communication, friendship, intimacy, parenting, stress, or the impact of a specific rupture. Wendy helps partners practice clearer repair, rebuild trust over time, and develop habits that support a more connected partnership.
Wendy is a Certified Gottman Therapist, a designation earned through the Gottman Institute’s rigorous certification process. She has had the pleasure of training with John and Julie Gottman, along with other Gottman Method trainers.
What this work can make possible
Therapy is a place to understand what has shaped you, make room for what is true, and practice a different way of relating to yourself and the people you care about.
Wendy tailors treatment to the person or relationship in front of her. No one theory or approach works for everyone.
