Get vulnerable 02/12/2011
I have been sharing this link with many of my clients. Brene Brown, an incredibly entertaining and captivating speaker, touches on the concept that in order for us to have the close, loving relationships we desire, we have to be willing to be vulnerable with each other. This is not a simple thing to do, and is often scary. When couples are in distress, it can be incredibly frightening to open up and be vulnerable again, especially if the relationship experienced a betrayal or trauma. Seeking out a couples therapist, particularly one trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy as I am, can be an important step in working back to the closeness and intimacy you desire in your relationship. www.MarriageCounselinginDenver.com <!--86eef4aa9a6a41e9aef795d3b56ec730--> 2 Comments Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy 10/07/2010
I am trained in a highly effective method of couples counseling called Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT). This approach is an empirically validated theory, meaning lots of rigorous research has gone into studying its efficacy. A recent meta-analysis of the studies on EFT has shown that 70-73% of couples move out of a "distressed" state and 90% experienced significant improvement. EFT is considered a brief form of therapy, with most couples completing the process in 15-30 sessions. EFT helps couples build deep understanding of one another's emotiional experience in the relationship, identify and change their patterns of interaction, and develop deep and meaningful bonds characterized by closeness and safety. Participants in EFT often describe the process as powerful, life-changing and significantly improving their relationship satisfaction.
