Emotionally Focused Therapy Training

What is Emotionally Focused Therapy?

Emotionally Focused therapy, developed by the late Sue Johnson, is an evidence-based, humanistic therapy model based largely on attachment theory, which aims to help clients develop securely attached relationships with others and with the self. While it was originally developed as a model of couple therapy, it has also been adapted to working with individuals (Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy or EFIT) and families (Emotionally Focused Family Therapy or EFFT). It is an experiential, emotion-focused model that encourages clients to access and identify the primary emotions and unmet needs underlying their recurring patterns in relationships.
