Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT)

Are you and your partner caught in a loop of repetitive arguments that never seem to resolve? Have you recently come across a message on your partner's phone that has shaken your trust in them?

If you answered yes to any of the above, I encourage you to consider Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT). Couples who experience betrayal are at risk of their relationship becoming fractured and potentially coming to an end.

EFCT is a structured approach initially developed for couples therapy based on attachment science. EFCT utilizes experiential techniques that prioritize personal experiences without pathologizing individuals and relational systems strategies that aim to understand and transform core dynamics in oneself and significant relationships. 

EFCT is a short-term intervention that typically consists of 8 to 20 sessions. However, there are many cases where sessions may extend past 20, depending on you and your partner's specific needs. The interventions utilized in EFCT combine a humanistic, experiential approach to reshape emotional experiences and a systemic structural approach to reshape interactions. 

EFCT Helps Couples Facing Challenges:

  • Depression
  • Trauma-Related Anxiety
  • Loss of a Child
  • Medical Illnesses
  • Infidelity
  • Forgiveness Dilemmas

If you are in need of assistance in repairing and reestablishing trust, resolving communication issues, and rebuilding intimacy in your relationship, I encourage you to reach out to me without delay. Together, we can develop a strategy to overcome the unique challenges that may have affected your connection, bringing you closer to your partner once again.
