Seven Principles for Successful Marriages

All couples want their relationships to successful and fulfilling.

“The Seven Principles for Making Marriages Work” is a workshop that can make that happen.

The Seven Principles Program for couples is a workshop based on the internationally acclaimed research of Dr. John Gottman as presented in his New York Times Bestselling Book "The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work"

Is this workshop for us?

Couples that would benefit from this workshop:

  • Pre-Engaged
  • Pre-Marital
  • Committed couples
  • Everyone from newlyweds to seniors
  • Those who wish to enhance a good marriage
  • Those needing better conflict management tools

What the workshop is about:

  • Improving friendship, fondness and admiration
  • Enhancing fondness and intimacy
  • Managing conflict constructively
  • Creating shared meaning
  • Maintaining gains throughout a lifetime
  • Gaining skills to address perpetual and solvable problems
  • Format includes lectures and private couple exercises.

What the workshop is not:

  • It is not therapy
  • It is not an open sharing of personal problems.
  • All exercises and discussions will occur privately between you and your significant other.

What are for formats and costs:

There are two typical formats – one day/six hour and three, two hour evening sessions.

The cost, for the six hour model varies depending upon the number of participants and will be no more than $200.00 for each couple, plus the cost of materials. Snacks will be provided and, for the one day format, lunch will be on your own. There are two types of book sets I can order for you and they range from $39-69.00. All cost can be paid with installments as well if that would allow you to be a part of this experience. If this cost is difficult to manage....please speak with me.
