What is Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)?

Emotionally Focused Therapy's (EFT) premise is that relationships, emotions, and experiences are guides towards wellness. While EFT can be used for couples therapy, it is much more. Utilizing the groundbreaking work of Dr. Sue Johnson, therapy will focus on our attachment styles as individual adults. EFT's focus is creating positive bonding experiences that calms our brains and heals our hearts.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is known as a short term therapy which combines experiential, systemic, and attachment based theories. With more than forty years of evidenced based research, EFT is said to be outperforming traditional talk therapies for the treatment of anxiety, depression, and trauma.
