In Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the focus is on helping people to identify, explore, and transform key emotions to promote the creation of new positive emotional experiences that strengthen attachment and improve the quality of interpersonal relationships.
Understanding Emotionally Focused Therapy
EFT is an approach that values the importance of emotions in the human experience, recognizing them as fundamental for building healthy relationships and for personal transformation. This therapy helps individuals access and understand their deepest emotions, facilitating emotional healing.
The Emotional Journey in EFT
During EFT sessions, the therapist guides the individual through a journey of emotional discovery and transformation, exploring complex emotional patterns and promoting the re-signification of past experiences. The goal is to achieve greater emotional and relational harmony.
Strengthening Bonds Through Emotion
By working directly with emotions, EFT seeks to strengthen the bonds between individuals, whether in the context of couples or family therapy. By recognizing and validating each other’s emotions, participants can develop a deeper understanding and a stronger connection.
Transformation and Healing
Emotionally Focused Therapy is a powerful path to personal transformation and the healing of relationships. By promoting a new understanding and experience of emotions, individuals and couples find new ways to relate to themselves and others, opening doors to a more fulfilling and satisfying life.
In my practice in Lisbon and online, I use EFT as a transformative tool, supporting my clients on the journey to reconnect with their emotions and renew the bonds that unite them with the most important people in their lives.
