The Seven Principles Workshop for couples is based on the internationally acclaimed research of Dr. John Gottman as presented in his New York Times bestselling book—The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work. This educational workshop has been offered across the US and internationally and has strengthened the relationships of tens of thousands of couples. It’s specifically designed to help couples improve their friendship and learn powerful communication and conflict management skills.

The workshop includes lectures, demonstrations, videos, and couples exercises. The activities are fun, insightful, and informative. The presenter incorporates humor and warmth, so you'll feel comfortable. There is no need to worry about sharing your personal problems in front of others… we don’t do any group sharing at this workshop.

Appropriate couples for this workshop are those pre-engaged, premarital, everyone from newlyweds to seniors, those who wish to enhance their relationship, or those needing better conflict management tools.

This workshop is not for couples experiencing severe relationship distress, emotional abuse, domestic violence, active addictions (alcohol, drug, sexual, gambling, etc.), or have a serious mental health problem in one or both partners. We would recommend individual therapy for each partner and/or couple's therapy in a private setting.

COUPLES WILL LEARN & PRACTICE RESEARCH-PROVEN TOOLS TO:

• Make conflict work for your relationship

• Deepen intimacy and build trust

• Identify your solvable vs. perpetual issues

• Strengthen your foundation of friendship

• Collaborate more effectively to solve problems

• Communicate clearly and effectively (…and get more of what you want and need as a result!)

Based on the book by John M. Gottman, Ph.D.,and Nan Silver
