Helping Couples Rewire, Heal & Transform through Gottman Informed Couples Brainspotting
Step into a transformational experience for your relationship with Intensive Couples Therapy. Our four-layered approach, Gottman Informed Couples Brainspotting, combines the research-backed tools of the renowned Gottman Method with the neuroscience of Brainspotting and the Safe & Sound Protocol. This unique form of couples counseling will help you navigate challenges in your relationship that may have seemed impossible to resolve before.
Through our focused couples therapy sessions, you will build new communication skills to manage conflict and heal deep emotional wounds that are often at the root of recurring problems. The insight and connection you gain through couples counseling will create a resilient foundation for lasting change and transform your bond with your partner.
What You’ll Experience:
layer 1 - Safe & Sound Protocol
Nervous System Reset & Polyvagal Work
Begin with polyvagal regulation using either the Safe & Sound Protocol or the Rest & Restore Protocol to create an ideal state for connection and healing. This foundational layer helps regulate your nervous system, putting you in an ideal nervous system state to begin working through conflict and making you more receptive to deeper relational work.
layer 2 - The Gottman Method
Relationship Intelligence & Trust-Building
Receive a personalized Gottman Connect Relationship Evaluation combined with digital educational resources, giving you research-backed knowledge and tools to strengthen trust and emotional safety.
layer 3 - Imago Dialogue
Regulated Conflict & Deeper Dialogue
Master the Imago Dialogue process combined with Brené Brown’s regulating sentence stems, so you can discuss perpetual issues with understanding and connection rather than frustration and disconnection.
layer 4 - Brainspotting
Deep Healing & Co-Regulation
Move beyond traditional talk therapy by integrating Brainspotting, Parts Work, and Cherie Lindberg’s Relationship Co-Regulation Technique inside the Imago Dialogue. This layer accesses and heals deep emotional wounds stored in the subcortical brain, allowing you to break free from old patterns and sustain lasting emotional attunement.
Individual Breakout SessionS
As part of the intensive, we also offer breakout sessions - individual meetings with each partner as needed, designed to fast-track personal healing needs that are being activated and revealed through the couple’s work. These sessions allow for focused support within the intensive, accelerating transformation for both the individual and the relationship.

TESTIMONIALS
HEAR FROM OUR CLIENTS
“Couples Brainspotting has helped us identified and change several destructive behavior patterns we learned from dysfunctional parents. When we Brainspot together, we often discover childhood traumas that intensify our emotional responses. After a few sessions, the original trauma loses much of its power. We now communicate in a healthy manner, as adults."
“Gottman Therapy and Couples Brainspotting with Jodie has provided us a platform for being able to share and listen like we hadn’t been able to prior. This has allowed us to get to the root issues quickly, and has helped us understand each others hearts more intimately. We have really benefitted from the intensive style of therapy that got things resolved quickly.”
“Jodie really helped my husband and I. We went in for couples therapy. We were having problems blending our family with teenagers. Jodie was very thorough and was able to get to the root of the problem quickly. I would not hesitate using her again. She is compassionate, firm, and an amazing soul.”
