Understanding Counseling
and Gottman Method Couples Therapy
Clinical Counseling
Anne M. King is a clinically trained counselor who is a Christian. She integrates her faith into the different theories. Theorist, Carl Rogers emphasizes unconditional positive regard, while Albert Ellis seeks to understand the whole person. Annie uses an eclectic style of Cognitive Behavioral therapy. Unhealthy feelings are painful roadblocks which disrupt their daily lives. Annie believes if people can change the way they think they can change the way they feel.
Gottman Method Couples Therapy
As a marriage and relationship counselor I use Gottman Method Couples Therapy. John Gottman is the foremost researcher around relationship issues. Years ago, when Gottman got started in the field everyone was looking into what was going wrong in marriage. Gottman decided to look at what makes marriage work. Over 40 years of research have gone into the techniques he and his wife Julie Swartz Gottman have created. I teach couples to communicate differently with these outcome-based techniques.
