Rebuild Connection. Strengthen Partnership. Transform Your Relationship

At Embrace Psychotherapy & Education, our 7 Principles for Making Marriage Work™ workshop gives couples the tools, clarity, and confidence to create a thriving relationship rooted in trust, friendship, and emotional connection.

Grounded in the world-renowned Gottman Method, this workshop guides couples through the essential foundations of a healthy, lasting partnership.

What You’ll Learn

1. Enhance Love Maps: Deepen your understanding of each other’s inner worlds—dreams, fears, meanings, and emotional landscapes. Rebuild closeness by becoming experts on one another again.

2. Nurture Fondness & Admiration: Reconnect with the reasons you fell in love. Strengthen the positive perspective by actively cultivating appreciation, gratitude, and respect.

3. Turn Toward Instead of Away: Learn how small moments of connection build unshakeable bonds. Discover how to respond to bids for attention, affection, and support in ways that reinforce intimacy.

4. Accept Influence: Shift out of power struggles. Practice flexibility, teamwork, and shared decision-making that honors both voices in the relationship.

5. Solve Solvable Problems: Develop practical, research-backed tools for communicating, compromising, and resolving everyday conflicts with compassion and clarity.

6. Overcome Gridlock: Transform long-standing, emotionally charged issues by understanding the deeper dreams, values, and fears that keep couples stuck. Move from tension to understanding and forward movement.

7. Create Shared Meaning: Build a relationship culture that feels rich, intentional, and uniquely yours. Align on rituals, goals, dreams, and life purpose to feel like true partners in the journey ahead.
