Course Detail: CON598 - Level 2 - "Assessment, Intervention and Co-Morbidities" Gottman Couples Therapy: A New Research-Based Approach

Based on 40+ years of Dr. John Gottman's research, this workshop offers students and clinicians a scientifically-based roadmap to help couples manage conflict, build friendship, and support each other's dreams.

After this four-day workshop students and clinicians will be able to:

  • ? Assess a couple's "Friendship Profile," "Conflict Profile," and "Shared Meanings Profile"
  • ? Develop interventions that couples can use as antidotes to the "Four Horsemen"

  • ? Help couples to soothe physiological flooding

  • ? Apply six modes of changing the "Attack/Defend System" in a couple's interactions

  • ? Assist couples in establishing dialogue about their grid-locked conflicts

  • ? Select and implement interventions to help couples deepen their "Friendship System" with rituals of connection

  • ? Select and implement interventions to help couples create a shared system of values and meaning

  • ? Identify and implement five different co-morbidities common to couples using Gottman Assessments and Interventions






Each participant will receive a new 500-page clinical training manual written by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. The manual includes the latest research in Gottman Couples Therapy plus Basics of Observation, Couples Assessment, Assessment Questionnaires, Individual Interviews, Feedback Session and a library of Gottman Method Interventions. Clinicians will be able to use and apply the Assessments, Interventions, and clinical tools immediately with their couples.

This workshop is open to current students and alumni of the IPFW/PFW Counselor Education program.
