Is Couples and Marriage Therapy Effective?

Research has found that, yes, couples counseling has a profound and positive effect on the health of the union. Independent studies -- done by non-Gottman researchers -- confirmed The Gottman Method approach has a positive effects on improving marital adjustment and couples' intimacy.

Follow-up studies indicated Gottman couples therapy has immediate and enduring positive effects.

Couples wait an average of six years of being unhappy before getting help. The quicker a couple gets professional help, the better the outcome of therapy.

Other factors that affect the success of marriage counseling include the partners’ motivation and timing. Unfortunately, most couples wait much too long before getting help.

Ready To Serve You

Dr. Crossen is the first Master Gottman Trainer in the Portland area, and has an extensive history of direct collaboration with Gottman Institute founders Drs. John and Julie Gottman. His reputation as a trustworthy couples therapist has led to partnerships with universities, counseling centers and private practices throughout the northwest.

Happily married couples aren’t smarter, richer, or more psychologically astute than others. But in their day-to-day lives, they have hit upon a dynamic that keeps their negative thoughts and feelings about each other (which all couples have) from overwhelming their positive ones.”
