Private Couples’ Retreats

Presented by Drs. John and Julie Gottman

NEW! In addition to presenting couples workshops in Seattle, WA, Drs. John and Julie Gottman are now also offering exclusive two-day Couples’ Retreats in their home on beautiful Orcas Island, WA.

The Gottmans are now providing new and additional intimate opportunities for couples to attend a two-day, small group retreat in their seaside home on lovely Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands of Washington. The retreats are presented by the Gottmans and include lectures, role plays, discussions, and exercises completed just with one's partner.

The intimate setting on Orcas Island enables couples to receive personalized, special attention from the Gottmans, while enhancing and restoring their relationship.

During the retreat, you will learn skills to:

• Strengthen your friendship
• Deepen your understanding of one another
• Spice up your intimacy
• Transform inevitable relationship conflicts so you can build solid bridges between the two of you
• Unearth the values and life purpose you share

The Gottmans welcome you to join them in their private, and comfortable setting.  While the retreat will take place at their island home, participants will stay nearby in beautiful accommodations.  If you wish, you can combine the retreat with a romantic island holiday experience as well.  Their event planner can help you arrange the details of your visit to Orcas Island including lodging, transportation, dining, and options for outstanding recreational opportunities, including sailing, kayaking, whale watching, golf, and hiking.

Private Marathon Therapy with the Gottmans
Drs. John and Julie Gottman are now scheduling appointments for Marathon Therapy at their home office on Orcas Island.  Marathon Therapy was developed at The Gottman Institute.  In this powerful new therapy format, one  couple meets with either Dr. John Gottman, Dr. Julie Gottman, or both doctors together for 5 hours a day and for 2-4 consectutive days while staying overnight at a nearby Hotel or Bed and Breakfast Inn.  Marathon Therapy can thus accommodate clients traveling from other locales who cannot attend weekly therapy sessions.  It provides an intensive, condensed and highly focused approach to relationship issues that can help couples move quickly through specific issues and learn important new skills in a short period of time.  To learn more or to schedule an appointment for Marathon Therapy, please call (206) 313-0471.
