Gottman Method Couples Therapy in Indianapolis & Bloomington, IN
Science-Backed Tools to Deepen Friendship, Manage Conflict, and Build Shared Meaning
The Gottman Method is an evidence-based approach to couples therapy derived from over four decades of groundbreaking research with thousands of relationships by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. Rather than relying on guesswork or generic advice, this model offers a structured, data-driven framework called the Sound Relationship House. It focuses on dismantling destructive patterns, such as criticism, defensiveness, contempt, and stonewalling, while building practical skills for emotional attunement and long-term connection.
In sessions at Maitri Counseling Collective, the Gottman Method is practiced through the lens of maitri, unconditional goodwill, benevolence, and mutual respect. We do not act as referees or assign fault. Instead, we help both partners step back, map their unique conflict styles, and identify the deeper dreams and unexpressed vulnerabilities beneath perpetual disagreements.
Through targeted exercises, you and your partner learn how to turn toward one another during everyday moments, create gentle conflict dialogue, and cultivate an enduring sense of teamwork and shared meaning. Whether you are navigating a difficult season of disconnection, recovering from a breach of trust, or proactively strengthening your foundation, the Gottman Method delivers actionable, lifelong tools, available at our offices in Broad Ripple, South Indianapolis, and Bloomington, or via secure telehealth across Indiana and Ohio.
