EFT

Unlocking Relationship Potential with Gottman Theory and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) For many of us, intimate relationships can bring both our greatest joy and deepest frustration. Have you ever noticed repeating patterns in your love life? Perhaps you’re always drawn to emotionally distant partners, or you feel overwhelmed when someone gets too close. These patterns often trace back to attachment styles—psychological blueprints shaped in early life that continue to influence how we connect as adults (Bowlby, 1969; Hazan & Shaver, 1987). Understanding attachment can shed light on why we love the way we do, and how therapy can help us build healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
