Feeling stuck in your relationship? You are not alone. Many couples experience relationship distress, however, the good news is that most couples fall into very common relationship patterns. This means reconnection and repair doesn’t have to be a mystery! I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy and use this approach to help clients learn about their emotions, relationship patterns, and become more present in body and mind. EFT is an attachment guided process that helps clients better attune to both themselves and to their partners. Biologically, we are designed for emotional connection and we develop attachment strategies to feel safe, manage emotions and get needs met. EFT provides a framework for clients to really understand and take ownership of their own emotional experience and attachment patterns, as well as understanding those of their partners. Intimacy and connection are created in moments of presence and vulnerability. This process may feel difficult at times, but the potential outcome can be very healing and rewarding.
