Couples Counselling
Longing is caring – about yourself and your partner
Are you longing for a closer connection to your partner? To be able to bring up topics of concern in your relationship and experiencing that it brings you closer to each other? To find out the impact you have on your partner and vice versa, hearing and feeling the impact you have on your partner? I am here to facilitate a sincere conversation between the two of you.
What to expect?
When you come to me as a couple your relationship is my focus. Together we will look at what you have been doing in your relationship that is keeping you from getting closer to each other. I know you are both doing your best. My primary task is to provide a safe space for both of you to explore what your wishes are and how you convey those to your partner. I will guide you to convey the core of your concern and wishes to your partner in a way that helps your partner hear it, take it in and respond to it.
What is EFT couple counselling?
EFT couple counselling is founded and developed by Sue Johnson. EFT is a well-known humanistic approach developed in tandem with the science of adult attachment, a profound developmental theory of personality and intimate relationships. Attachment theory views human beings as innately relational, social and wired for intimate bonding with others.
EFT stands for Emotionally Focused Therapy. In EFT we focus on emotion as they contain information about our sensations, how we are impacted and what we mean. When we can convey the meaning to ourselves, we not only become very clear on what we need and want for ourselves. By expressing this to our partner we also become very clear to him or her and provide an opportunity for him and her to respond to that.
