What is Emotionally Focused Therapy?

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a proven therapeutic approach focusing on understanding and transforming emotions to create deeper, more secure relationship connections. Developed by Dr. Sue Johnson, EFT is grounded in the science of attachment theory and emphasizes the importance of emotional responsiveness and vulnerability in fostering healthy relationships.

How EFT Can Help Couples

EFT offers a roadmap to rebuild trust, intimacy, and understanding for couples struggling with communication breakdowns, conflict, or disconnection. Through guided conversations and experiential exercises, couples learn to identify and express their underlying emotions, break destructive patterns, and develop new ways of relating to each other. EFT helps couples cultivate a stronger emotional bond, leading to greater satisfaction and fulfillment in their relationship.

How EFT Can Help Individuals

EFT isn’t just for couples; it’s also highly effective for individuals facing relationship challenges or struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem. By exploring and processing their emotions within a safe therapeutic environment, individuals can gain insight into their relational patterns, heal past wounds, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. EFT empowers individuals to create more fulfilling and meaningful connections in all areas of their lives.
