Session 6 begins the practice portion of the counseling which looks more like coaching. Clients will learn a variety of communication techniques to assist clients in sharing their emotions, perspectives, and needs more successfully with one another. 

Past resentments can linger, often leading to ongoing disputes between partners. By learning the Gottman skills, clients can effectively address and resolve these issues, paving the way for healthier communication. Practicing how to handle past regrettable incidents becomes essential in moving forward together, fostering a stronger bond.

Couples counseling is designed to empower partners valuable resources, effective techniques, and a deeper understanding of communication. The goal is to equip couples with the tools they need to navigate challenges together, fostering a healthier relationship. It's important to remember that counseling is not intended to be a lifelong commitment, but rather a stepping stone toward a more harmonious partnership. Together, we aim for lasting growth and improved connection.
