Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a structured approach used during couples therapy (but can also be used in individual counseling) that primarily focuses on emotional bonding and attachment. It helps clients understand and reshape their emotional responses within relationships, fostering a deeper connection and improving communication. EFT is particularly beneficial for couples experiencing distress, those facing challenges related to intimacy, or individuals dealing with issues of abandonment or insecurity.
By identifying negative interaction patterns and promoting vulnerability, clients can build stronger, more secure attachments. If you’re interested in exploring how EFT can enhance your relationship, consider scheduling a session with a couples therapist at Willamette Wellness Center. Our couples counselors have advanced training in couples dynamics and needs and are trained in therapies like EFT specifically designed to help you form a stronger, more resilient relationship.
