Some of the evidence-based modalities used in marriage counseling at Pesach Tikvah
Emotion Focused Therapy: Emotion Focused Therapy is focused on creating connections in
relationships. It is a modality that doesn’t focus on right and wrong but merely focuses on one’s
attachments via imparting the language to do so. It teaches how one can access and express one’s
emotions.
Gottman Method Couples Therapy: The Gottman Method is an approach to couples therapy that
includes a thorough assessment of the relationship and integrates research-based interventions. This
modality helps to diffuse the core destructors of a relationship. After creating a safe bond and safe
space, methods are taught to navigate differences.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can help a couple manage problems by
reframing thoughts and behaviors.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: ACT pays particular attention to thoughts and feelings,
especially the stories or narratives which shape and direct our reactions.
