What is Emotionally focused therapy (EFT)

Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) is a type of short-term treatment used to improve attachment and bonding in adult relationships. Sue Johnson and Les Greenberg developed EFT in the 1980s. The couples therapy approach is based on research about love as an attachment bond.

EFT has also been adapted for families. This treatment can help people form more secure emotional bonds, which can promote stronger relationships and improved communication.

Emotionally Focused Therapy

 

EFT can benefit couples who are struggling with conflict, distress, and poor communication.

A couple may benefit from EFT if they are dealing with:

 
  • Addiction
  • Depression
  • Chronic illness
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

EFT can also be a powerful approach for couples dealing with infidelity and trauma, 

 

Benefits of Emotionally Focused Therapy

Emotionally focused therapy can unwind automatic, counterproductive reactions that threaten relationships. Individuals, couples, and families can get the following benefits from therapy:

 
  • Better emotional functioning: EFT provides a language for healthy dependency between partners and looks at key moves and moments that define an adult love relationship. The primary goal of the model is to expand and re-organize the emotional responses of the couple.
  • Stronger bonds: EFT is based on attachment theory, which suggests that attachments between people typically provide a safe place—a retreat from the world and a way to get comfort, security, and a buffer against stress.8
  • Improved interpersonal understanding: EFT helps people become more aware of their partner’s needs. Because of this awareness, they can also listen and discuss problems from a place of empathy instead of a place of defensiveness or anger.
