How Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Works

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) recognizes that our emotions play a significant role in shaping our interactions with others and ourselves. By better understanding our emotions and their triggers, we can improve our lives. In EFT sessions, our therapists will work with the client to identify and understand their negative emotions. These emotions can include anger, fear, sadness, resentment, or loneliness. By exploring and understanding the deeper meaning behind these emotions, clients can develop a deeper self-awareness and insight.

Once we identify the negative emotions, our therapists and clients will work together to manage and resolve them. This may involve learning to communicate, developing empathy, and practicing healthy coping. Through the process of emotionally focused therapy, clients can learn how to manage their emotional experiences and create a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
