TESTIMONIALS
I was extremely worried that doing 10 hours was going to be too much for me to handle. But Paula structured it and delivered the program in a way that was comfortable and made the time seem like nothing at all. Being able to sit and really get into things helped my partner and I be able to start healing and working together quickly.

TESTIMONIALS
Paula did a wonderful job leading and coaching the intensive for us. She is quick to politely re-direct when needed and coaches with respect and knowledge. We are so happy to have found her and the Gottman intensive method and have a lot more hope and peace coming out of the weekend for the future of our relationship.

TESTIMONIALS
Paula literally saved our marriage. We were emotionally and physically drained and unable to communicate effectively. We saw each other in such negative light that we could not connect and express empathy. We were against each other. One weekend with Paula turned that all around. We are now on the same team and can see the person we fell in love with. We have a solid foundation for connection, friendship, trust, respect and admiration. We both cannot say enough good things about this session.
