EFT Couples Therapy

Premarital Counseling

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a highly effective approach to couples therapy that can help you and your partner create a stronger and more fulfilling relationship. EFT is based on the idea that our emotions are at the core of our experiences, and that our ability to connect with others is essential to our well-being.

As a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist in Los Angeles, I use EFT to help couples break free from negative patterns of interaction and deepen their emotional bond. Through this approach, we will work together to identify the underlying emotions and needs that drive your behavior and communication style.

By understanding the negative cycle that keeps you stuck, you can learn to communicate your needs and desires in a way that fosters connection and understanding. EFT is a research-based model that has been shown to have a success rate of 75% or more, making it one of the most effective approaches to couples therapy.

Whether you are constantly fighting or not speaking at all, there is hope for your relationship. Investing in couples therapy can help prevent issues from escalating and ensure that your connection with your partner remains strong. Don't wait until it's too late - let's work together to help your relationship thrive.
