Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) For Couples

 

Emotionally Focused Therapy helps couples understand and express their emotional needs more clearly. This approach is based on the premise that emotions can be a pathway to connection rather than a barrier. Through EFT, partners learn to identify negative patterns that lead to disconnection and work towards creating a more secure emotional bond. Couples can experience greater intimacy and resilience by fostering a deeper emotional connection.

Gottman Method

 

Incorporating the insights from the extensive research-based approach of the Gottman Method, our therapy sessions focus on enriching your communication and conflict-resolution skills. This method emphasizes the importance of nurturing respect, affection, and closeness, managing conflict constructively, and building and sharing a deeper connection.

The Benefits Of Couples Therapy

 

Couples therapy has been proven to help treat a wide array of relationship issues, including but
not limited to:

• Communication barriers

• Emotional distance or disconnection

• Trust issues, such as infidelity

• Conflict and anger problems

• Life transitions and stress

• Intimacy and affection concerns

 

Up-to-date research validates that couples therapy can significantly improve relationship satisfaction and be a vital tool in rekindling the connection that may have diminished over time. Couples often wait too long before reaching out for help, leading to increased difficulty in repairing the relationship. Seeking help before problems grow too large reduces the chances of separation and divorce in the future.
