North Sydney Therapy: Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for Couples: Rebuilding Bonds That Last

Written By Rachel Pfeiffer

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps couples move out of reactivity and into deeper connection. At its core, EFT is about creating a secure emotional bond.

How EFT Works

  • Identifies negative cycles (pursue/withdraw, attack/defend)

  • Explores attachment needs and fears beneath the conflict

  • Builds new emotional experiences that foster connection

Common Issues EFT Helps Address

  • Communication breakdowns

  • Fear of vulnerability

  • Emotional withdrawal or criticism

  • Insecurity and mistrust
