Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)
Do you find it hard to control your emotions? Do your emotions often dictate your response? Do you wish you had the tools to harness your emotions and move forward with your life?
If you answered yes to any of these, we encourage you to explore Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) — an approach based on the premise that our emotions are key to our identity and a guide for decision-making. When we lack awareness of our emotions, or avoid unpleasant ones, we lose access to the information they provide.
EFT Helps You:
- Become more aware of your emotions
- Welcome, allow, and regulate emotions
- Describe emotions clearly and in detail
- Evaluate whether emotions are helpful or hurtful
- Identify the source of unhelpful emotions
- Develop alternative, healthy ways of coping with situations that often trigger hurtful emotions
Unlike other therapeutic approaches, EFT treats emotion as a source of healing, working with specific emotions to increase adaptation.
If you're seeking help identifying, utilizing, and processing your emotions, we encourage you to contact us today. Together, we'll work on increasing awareness of your emotions, separating useful from hurtful ones, and using healthy emotions to guide your actions.
