"We are never so vulnerable as when we love."
Sigmund Freud
At the heart of Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFT) is the belief that understanding and transforming emotions is key to healing and deepening connection. I guide couples on a journey of discovery, helping them identify and address the underlying patterns that may be causing distress in their relationship. Through EFT, couples learn to communicate more effectively, heal past wounds, and cultivate greater intimacy and security.
I specialize in providing support to international couples from diverse cultural backgrounds, offering couples therapy in English only. While navigating the complexities of relationships across cultures, I aim to create a safe and understanding space where couples can explore their challenges and growth opportunities.
It's important to note that while individual therapy can be reimbursed by health insurances, couples therapy is typically not covered. However, investing in your relationship can lead to profound changes and enhanced well-being.
EFT was developed by Sue Johnson in the 1980s, based on the person-centred approach and attachment theory by John Bowlby. It's showing a path for couples looking to transform their relationship challenges into trust and closeness.
EFT focuses on the fundamental role of emotions in shaping our experiences and relationships. It aims to cultivate a secure sense of self and solidify bonds with others, leading to greater happiness and well-being. EFT is renowned for its effectiveness in couples therapy. What sets EFT apart is its emphasis on understanding and managing emotions, fostering healthier relationships and lasting change.

"When we learn to understand and validate each other's emotions, we create a bond that can withstand any storm."
