The models of therapy we use in our work with individuals, couples and families are rooted in attachment theory and the neuroscience of human connection and mental health.
When practicing EFT, therapists work with individuals, couples and families to help answer the following questions:
Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT)
- How do I understand and deal with my symptoms of depression and anxiety or the emotional turmoil I feel caused by a traumatic event?
- How do I change patterns of interactions with people that leave me feeling confused and alone?
- How do I learn to feel more confident in myself and competent in managing life’s challenges?
- How do I feel more fully alive and secure in myself in day to day life?
- How do I get deeply rooted in a secure sense of myself?
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT)
- How can we deepen or repair our romantic relationship?
- How can we get out of our pattern that leaves us feeling disconnected, alone, and unsure of how to feel close to one another once again?
- How can we resolve and fully heal old relational wounds that have happened between us?
Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT)
- How can we help and support our child when we see them struggling and we are left feeling lost and unsure of how to help them?
- How can we parent in a way that leaves us feeling that our parenting styles are more compatible?
- How can we improve family relationships and dynamics in order to have deeper understanding and connection between all family members?
Addressing the core issues, fostering lasting transformations, and developing more fulfilling relationships is at the heart of EFT.
Including EFIT into therapy can help individuals who may be dealing with feelings of depression, anxiety, or the emotional turmoil caused by a traumatic event.
EFCT is used to support individuals and their significant others as they look to deepen or repair their romantic relationships.
When the goal is to improve family relationships and dynamics, EFFT may be used to help deepen understanding and connection amongst family members.
