How Does Emotionally Focused Therapy Help?

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an effective way to improve your relationship. EFT helps couples understand what drives frustration and disconnection. Behind most struggling relationships is a pattern of misunderstanding and unmet needs. Once this pattern is discovered, Emotionally Focused Therapy helps couples disrupt and change this pattern. Disrupting and changing this pattern provides the opportunity to experience your relationship in a new way. You can experience understanding, connection, and fulfillment in your relationship. This provides the possibility to now find new solutions to old problems, and helps sustain long-lasting change in your relationship.
