Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples in Boston and all of Massachusetts
Using my training in EFT I can help you both:
-
Understand the unique dance that takes over in times of conflict and stress. This dance can leave couples baffled, wondering what triggered the tension.
-
Once we understand this dynamic, we'll work together to help you identify and express your feelings. Even if you don't consider yourself emotionally expressive, I can help you tap into your emotions and communicate them effectively.
-
Our work together will help you learn to share your feelings with your partner in a clear, honest, and respectful way, even during challenging times.
-
Understanding your feelings can help break negative patterns and create a new, positive cycle. While conflict can't be eliminated, it doesn't have to lead to disconnection and long arguments. By practicing new skills in our sessions, you'll grow as a couple and strengthen your relationship.

If your relationship has experienced attachment injuries, such as infidelity, my training in the Attachment Injury Repair Model can help you and your partner heal and rebuild trust.
