Online Couples Counseling

using emotionally focused therapy

You deserve a relationship that feels good. If you’re here, you may be feeling frustrated, exhausted, or even hopeless about your relationship. You’re longing for better communication, increased trust, and a deeper connection, though you’re at a loss over how to get there. You keep dancing the same dance, but you’re more than ready to change the tempo. You love each other and want to get along better - why is that so hard?

If this sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. Couples often get caught in a repeating cycle of conflict. Getting continuously stuck in this cycle can take a toll on your relationship. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy, the most effective couples counseling approach, we’ll work to identify and dismantle your cycle and restructure new bonds. At the end of our work, you’ll feel empowered in your secure relationship.

Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a highly effective and evidence-based approach to helping couples improve their relationships. Research has shown that EFT can lead to significant improvements in relationship satisfaction and overall well-being for couples. In fact, 70-75% of couples move from distress to recovery and approximately 90% show significant improvement.

EFT couples counseling has been successful in addressing a wide range of relationship issues including communication problems, infidelity, trust issues, and more. It is a compassionate and empathetic approach that helps couples not only resolve their conflicts but also deepen their emotional connection and intimacy.

how therapy works

  • Learn more about the process and make sure this is the best fit for you.

  • In the first session, I’ll meet with you as a couple. The next two sessions will be individual sessions, one with each partner. This is the most efficient way for me to get caught up to where you are as quickly as possible.

  • 1. Identify and de-escalate your cycle of conflict.

    2. Restructure and deepen your bond by seeing each other and yourself in a new way.

    3. Consolidate a new cycle in which you both feel heard, understood, and valued in your secure relationship.

  • Therapy is a process, and progress isn’t linear. While you may experience some immediate relief, there may also be sessions that are uncomfortable and challenging. An important component to success in therapy is allowing the time and consistency that is needed for deeper, meaningful change.

questions you may have

  • If you find yourselves stuck in repetitive conflicts, unable to communicate effectively, or experiencing a loss of emotional connection, therapy could be beneficial for your relationship.

  • While there’s no 100% guarantee in any therapy experience, the research is clear: EFT works. It has received the American Psychological Association’s “gold standard” as the most effective couples therapy approach.

  • While couples therapy is most beneficial with both partners, there are alternative options. I provide therapy for individuals who may want to work on their relationship challenges, even if their partner is not currently participating in therapy.
