This is How Positive Change Happens…
Great News! The Gottman Couples Retreat Board Game
Relationships can be really hard sometimes. That’s why we need lots of tools to deal with the inevitable conflicts, disconnects, and slumps. One of the effective tools I offer in couple
s therapy are approaches from the research-based work of Drs. John and Julie Gottman. In my work with couples, I support them to learn and practice new behaviours that are proven to strengthen relationships such as shifting from criticism to complaining without blame and from defensiveness to increasing accountability.
The Gottmans and their team have poured a lot of time and energy into deeply observing what kind of behaviours work well in a relationship and which behaviours erode it or destroy it. Their findings provide some very concrete information we can practice in our relationships. And just this week, I was happy to receive the news that the Gottmans are offering their incredibly valuable tools in a board game! Yes, let’s make working on our relationships FUN, whenever possible! Here’s the link in case you’d like to play at home and enhance your relationship in a new, impactful, and fun way:
