Now a psychologist focusing on relationships of all types, whether they be couples, families, or parental. We all desire the support, safety and security of a close loving relationship. Emotionally Focused Therapy is an experiential therapy designed to repair old wounds, build new ways of expressing our emotional responses evoked by another's actions and emotional displays. Sometimes this can be as result of our family of origin, or childhood trauma from other sources, that tripper emotional responses trying to protect us, but can be maladaptive in the current relationship. Research Sue Johnson's books - Hold Me Tight and Love Sense (sometimes called The Love Secret) for more information about Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT and EFCT).
