Gottman Method Couples Therapy · Mornington Peninsula & Melbourne
Therapy Atelier is a private couples practice in Mornington — Gottman Method and depth psychology, held in unhurried ninety-minute sessions, in person or online across Australia.
Ninety-minute sessions, AUD $350. Couples only, by private consultation.
The method’s highest clinical certification — advanced, research-informed training in how couples fight, withdraw and repair, integrated here with depth psychology and attachment-focused work.
Every session runs to ninety minutes, not fifty. Difficult conversations need room to open, deepen and settle before you leave the room.
A boutique practice with a deliberately small caseload. No waiting room bustle — a considered room, and attention that is never rushed.
Often one of you arrives ready before the other. That is not a problem to be solved; it is simply where the work begins.
Reluctance is not resistance. Many people sit down in our rooms unconvinced, and are met exactly as they are.
The Gottman Method is among the most extensively researched approaches to working with couples: a structured, clinically grounded way of understanding how two people argue, withdraw, rebuild trust, and find their way back to one another.
Your therapist holds Gottman Level 3 — the method’s highest clinical certification — and practises it alongside depth psychology and attachment-focused work, so that sessions attend both to the patterns you can see and to the currents beneath them.
It is a serious framework for serious difficulty: gridlocked conflict, broken trust, the aftermath of an affair, and the slow drift that neither of you chose.
Ninety minutes, AUD $350 per session. In Mornington, online, or a blend of both.
Three or five days of concentrated work, AUD $5,800–$7,800. For couples whose situation calls for focused, sustained attention.
Immersive multi-day retreats in Australia, Japan, or a destination of your choice. By private enquiry.
Couples only. Your enquiry is confidential, and you will hear back within one business day.
Ninety minutes, A$350, in Mornington or online.
