Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
Building Connection, Healing Relationships
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a research-backed approach to improving relationships and emotional bonds. At Therapeutic Recovery Network, we use EFT to help couples and families reconnect, resolve conflicts, and create healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
What is EFT
EFT is a structured, evidence-based therapy designed to address the emotional underpinnings of relationships. Developed by Dr. Sue Johnson, this approach focuses on understanding and transforming negative interaction patterns while fostering secure emotional connections.
EFT is particularly effective for:
• Couples experiencing conflict, disconnection, or communication difficulties
• Families navigating stress, trauma, or major life changes
• Individuals seeking to understand and improve their emotional responses in relationships
How EFT works
EFT focuses on emotions as the key to understanding and improving relationships. The therapy process involves:
1. Identifying Negative Patterns: Understanding recurring cycles of conflict or disconnection.
2. Exploring Underlying Emotions: Discovering the deeper feelings and fears driving these patterns.
3. Fostering Emotional Safety: Creating a secure environment where partners or family members feel safe to express themselves.
4. Strengthening Bonds: Rebuilding trust, improving communication, and fostering deeper emotional connections.
