What are the Gottman Method and Solution-Focused Therapy in couples counselling?
The Gottman Method is a structured, evidence-based approach that focuses on building friendship, managing conflict, and creating shared meaning in relationships. Solution-Focused Therapy, on the other hand, emphasizes finding practical, short-term strategies to improve specific concerns. You can find therapists in Vancouver trained in both modalities by reviewing their approach on their therapist profile.
