For more than 25 years, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) has helped couples reshape emotional responses, transform interaction patterns, and build stronger, more secure bonds. Research shows that 70-75% of couples experience a shift from distress to recovery, with nearly 90% reporting meaningful improvement in their relationship.

Through our work together:

  • We will map the negative cycle of communication that disconnects you from your partner. 

  • We will learn how the pattern of defensive, reactive, and protective emotions and behavior keeps you both stuck in a cycle of conflict. 

  • We will slow down and bring awareness to the cycle helping understand the deeper reasons behind strong emotional responses, which are often tied to feelings of loneliness, hurt, or lack of support.

  •  We will uncover core issues and identify past negative experiences and unmet needs that can often be the trigger for conflict.

Couples will experience:

  • A deeper understanding of you and your partner's emotions and needs. 

  • A stronger bond created through open, meaningful communication

  • Feeling heard, valued, and understood by their partner

  • Increased emotional and physical intimacy. 

  • Hope for the future and confidence in navigating life’s challenges together.
