What is EFT?

EFT (Emotionally focused therapy) is a clinically proven and evidence-based approach that helps couples thrive.

Many couples develop negative patterns over the course of their relationship that cause distress, frustration, and feelings of loneliness. Many couples feel stuck - having the same fights over and over.

EFT draws on attachment theory to help couples identify where their relationship is stuck, and how to create more satisfying relational patterns again.

EFT helps couples learn to communicate more effectively.

  • Better understanding your partner’s behaviour, and how to help

  • A deeper understanding of what your emotions are trying to tell you and how to communicate them more effectively

  • Learning to pause arguments without becoming defensive or pushing the other person away

  • Developing a deeper sense of empathy for yourself and your partner

  • Learning to repair and strengthen the relationship after inevitable fights or arguments do occur

  • Building a deeper, more stable, relational foundation that you can rely on through difficult times

It can also help with…

Understanding always precedes compromise.

Having an increased emotional intelligence with your partner will help you better understand why you might become angry or defensive, or why you retreat and hide away when things get tough.

Let’s help you learn to stay in connection with one another, as you better understand what your emotions are trying to tell you about what you need to feel safe. Let’s help you connect on a deeper level, with a greater understanding and appreciation for the other.

Our emotions and relationship history drive a lot of our behaviour…
