Feel like you’re stuck in the same fight on repeat?
You pull away. They get louder. Or maybe it’s the other way around. Either way, the arguments don’t lead anywhere. The silence hurts in its own way. You still care about each other, but something keeps getting in the way of feeling close.
You want things to feel easier again. You want to feel like you’re on the same team. You just don’t know how to get back there.
You’re not failing.
You’re stuck in a pattern.
And there is a way out.
Our work with couples is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy
Family Strong is an EFT-informed practice.
This means our couples counseling is built on one of the most effective, research-supported ways to help partners repair, reconnect, and strengthen their bond.
You do not need to understand EFT before coming in.
We’ll guide you at a pace that feels safe and clear. Our team includes therapists with advanced training in EFT, and all clinicians receive ongoing EFT-focused supervision and support so you get steady, grounded care no matter who you see.
EFT helps you understand what is happening underneath your reactions—the shutdowns, the tension, the anger, and the moments where you both miss each other. It’s not about blame. It’s about understanding the deeper emotional signals that shape your cycle and learning how to reach for each other in a new way.
What EFT
helps you do:
Interrupt the cycle that keeps pulling you apart
Understand each other without blame, criticism, or shutdown
Rebuild trust after betrayal, rupture, or emotional distance
Share needs and fears in a way that brings closeness
Create emotional and physical safety
Restore intimacy naturally, without pressure
This isn’t surface-level work. It’s not just communication tips or date nights or teaching you how to be a “good” couple. EFT helps you reconnect at the deepest level — where it actually matters.
Whether you’re trying to heal old wounds, reconnect emotionally, or rebuild your sex life, we’ll meet you exactly where you are.
Let’s help you find your way back to each other.
You don’t have to figure it out alone. You don’t have to pick a side. You don’t have to keep wondering if this is just how it’s going to be.
If you’re ready to break free from the cycle and build something real again, we’re here to help.
FAQ: Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples
What is EFT, exactly?
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a short-term, evidence-based approach that helps couples break out of negative patterns and build a deeper emotional connection. It focuses on the underlying emotions and unmet attachment needs that drive conflict, distance, and disconnection.
Does EFT really work?
Yes. EFT is one of the most well-researched and effective methods for couples therapy. Studies show that over 70% of couples move from distress to recovery with EFT — and those changes last. It’s not a quick fix, but it’s a powerful, proven path to lasting connection.
What makes EFT different from other couples therapy?
Many therapies focus on surface-level communication skills or conflict management. EFT goes deeper and gets to the emotions beneath the arguments. Instead of just learning how to be a “good couple,” you’ll learn how to reach for each other with honesty, safety, and vulnerability.
Is EFT just for couples in crisis?
Not at all. EFT supports couples at every stage whether you’re in crisis, feeling distant, healing from betrayal, or simply looking to deepen an already good relationship. If you’re stuck, emotionally disconnected, or unsure how to move forward, EFT can guide the way.
How long does EFT take?
While every couple is different, EFT is designed to be short-term. Many couples begin seeing shifts within the first few months. Our goal isn’t to keep you in therapy forever — it’s to help you build something stronger and more secure that lasts long after therapy ends.
What kinds of issues can EFT help with?
EFT can help with:
- Ongoing conflict or communication breakdown
- Emotional distance or “roommate syndrome”
- Betrayal, infidelity, or broken trust
- Disconnection or difficulty with intimacy and sex
- Anxiety about losing the relationship
Feeling unloved, unseen, or alone in the partnership
What if my partner doesn’t want to come?
That’s more common than you might think. You’re welcome to reach out anyway — we can talk through the situation and explore next steps. Sometimes just one partner starting the process can be the beginning of real change.
