7 Principles Program
A workshop for Couples in a Committed Relationship
Through the Love Lab, Dr. John Gottman and his team revolutionized the study of relationships by using scientific procedures to observe the habits of couples in unprecedented detail. His book, The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work summarizes their research and outlines the 7 principles that can help guide couples, in any stage of a committed relationship, on a path towards increased love and connection.
The 7 Principles program, created by David Penner and the Gottman Institute, will provide participants the opportunity to learn about Dr. Gottman's research and the principles used by "Masters" of relationships in a structured, and motivating atmosphere.
Expect to learn tools to help you:
- improve friendship, fondness and admiration
- enhance romance and intimacy
- manage conflict constructively
- address perpetual and solvable problems
- create shared meaning
Break out sessions will be utilized for practicing and coaching in private. Class time will allow for questions and to receive clarification about how to use the tools more effectively.
We understand confidentiality is very important. Other than a brief introduction, personal information is not expected to be shared and will be limited in order to maintain the learning environment.
