Bevor ein Therapeut dieses Verfahren anbieten darf, muss er zun\u00e4chst einige standardisierte Fortbildungen absolvieren. Die Behandlungsmethode wurde in den 1980er Jahren von Dr. Sue Johnson und Leslie Greenberg unter dem Namen &#8220;Emotionally focused couples therapy&#8221; entwickelt und seitdem kontinuierlich weiterentwickelt. Sie wird in vielen L\u00e4ndern auf der ganzen Welt eingesetzt, besonders h\u00e4ufig in den USA und den Niederlanden. In Deutschland gewinnt sie zunehmend an Beliebtheit.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1711743634237\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\"><strong>Welche Annahmen liegen der EFT zugrunde?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Der Begriff \u201eemotionsfokussiert\u201c deutet bereits auf die <strong>erste Grundannahme<\/strong> hin: Die <strong>Arbeit mit<\/strong> den <strong>Gef\u00fchlen<\/strong> beider Partner ist nach Sue Johnson das zentrale Behandlungselement. Denn laut der Theorie sind es erst die mit ihnen einhergehenden Emotionen, die bestimmte Erlebnisse und Erfahrungen f\u00fcr uns Menschen bedeutsam machen. Ob oder welche Bedeutung etwas f\u00fcr eine Person hat, h\u00e4ngt demnach davon ab, welche Gef\u00fchle ausgel\u00f6st werden.<\/p>\n<p>Entsprechend geht ein emotionsfokussierter Paartherapeut bzw. eine emotionsfokussierte Paartherapeutin davon aus, dass Gef\u00fchle das Verhalten eines Menschen ma\u00dfgeblich steuern: Wachstum entsteht aus emotionalen Begegnungen und Situationen in Beziehungen. Daher fokussiert diese Therapieform in erster Linie auf Emotionen.<\/p>\n<p>Der emotionsfokussierten Paartherapie liegt eine <strong>weitere zentrale Annahme<\/strong> zugrunde: Es wird davon ausgegangen, <strong>dass das Verhalten, das ein Partner in der Beziehung an den Tag legt, nicht b\u00f6swillig ist <\/strong>\u2013 auch dann nicht, wenn es der Partnerschaft objektiv schadet. Emotionsfokussierte Therapeuten begreifen jedes Verhalten stattdessen als die aufrichtige und bestm\u00f6gliche Bem\u00fchung des Partners, N\u00e4he und Sicherheit in der Liebesbeziehung herzustellen. Laut dieser Perspektive von Sue Johnson <strong>geben<\/strong> also <strong>beide Partner ihr Bestes<\/strong> \u2013 das ist nur nicht immer tats\u00e4chlich geeignet, um die Partnerschaft positiv zu gestalten.<\/p>\n<p>Diese Grundhaltung der EFT begr\u00fcndet die Annahme, dass <strong>beide Partner<\/strong><strong>grunds\u00e4tzlich<\/strong> die <strong>F\u00e4higkeit<\/strong> haben, <strong>sich zu ver\u00e4ndern und zu wachsen<\/strong>. Dabei m\u00f6chte die EFT konkret unterst\u00fctzen.<\/p>\n<p>Das Ziel der emotionsfokussierten Paartherapie ist es, wieder eine <strong>emotional-sichere, liebevolle Bindung<\/strong> zwischen den Beziehungspartnern aufzubauen. Hierzu sollen Offenheit und Verst\u00e4ndnis f\u00fcreinander gest\u00e4rkt werden, sodass Verletzungen heilen k\u00f6nnen. Die EFT baut auf Erkenntnissen der psychologischen Bindungstheorie auf.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1711743634238\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\"><strong>Was besagt die Bindungstheorie?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Die Bindungstheorie ist eine klassische psychologische Theorie. Ihre Vertreter gehen davon aus, dass Menschen ein <strong>biologisch angelegtes Bed\u00fcrfnis nach N\u00e4he<\/strong> und emotionaler Unterst\u00fctzung haben. Demnach entwickelt jeder Mensch aufgrund seiner Lebenserfahrungen mit engen Bezugspersonen einen bestimmten <strong>Bindungsstil<\/strong>. Das ist die typische Art, wie er sich in zwischenmenschlichen Beziehungen verh\u00e4lt, sozusagen sein automatisiertes Muster.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In der Bindungswissenschaft werden 4 Bindungsstile unterschieden:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p>Ein <strong>sicherer Bindungsstil<\/strong><br \/>Dieser Bindungsstil kann sich ausbilden, wenn Bezugspersonen angemessen und feinf\u00fchlig auf Bed\u00fcrfnisse reagieren. Erwachsene mit einer sicheren Bindung k\u00f6nnen N\u00e4he und Distanz gut regulieren und Emotionen in Beziehungen ausbalancieren.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Ein <strong>unsicher-ambivalenter Bindungsstil<\/strong><br \/>Wenn Bezugspersonen zwar manchmal verf\u00fcgbar sind, in anderen Situationen jedoch nicht, pr\u00e4gt sich oftmals ein unsicher-ambivalenter Bindungsstil aus. Als Erwachsene suchen Menschen mit diesem Stil einerseits N\u00e4he, haben aber andererseits Angst davor, verletzt zu werden. Sie versuchen dann, sehr gro\u00dfe Intimit\u00e4t zum Partner aufzubauen und reagieren verzweifelt oder w\u00fctend, wenn diese nicht im selben Ma\u00dfe erwidert wird.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>An <strong>insecure-avoidant attachment style:<\/strong><br \/> If attachment figures do not respond, or only rarely respond, to a child&#8217;s needs, the affected children often develop an insecure-avoidant attachment style. As adults, these individuals often do not show their emotions. They frequently find it difficult to recognize or name them. Out of fear of being hurt, they keep their partner at a distance and avoid conflict. However, when conflicts do arise, they suffer particularly intensely.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>A <strong>disorganized attachment style<\/strong><br \/> often develops when people have experienced trauma with their caregivers. Their behavior then frequently fluctuates between different attachment styles, making them difficult for their partners to predict.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>However, a person&#8217;s attachment style is not fixed, but can change over the course of their life \u2013 and can also differ to some extent between different caregivers.<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, the goal of emotion-focused couple therapy is to (re)establish a <strong>secure bond between the partners .<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\" id=\"t-1711743634239\"><strong>Who is EFT suitable for?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">EFT is generally <strong>suitable for all couples<\/strong> who are open to introspection and want to change something about their relationship. There are no exclusion criteria that would preclude the use of this method.<\/p>\n<p>However, EFT is particularly recommended for two groups of couples:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p style=\"\">For (married) couples who feel that their inner connection to each other is damaged or almost completely broken &#8211; and who want to restore this connection.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"\">For couples who find it difficult to show, name, or recognize their own emotions and who therefore repeatedly experience a similar pattern of emotional misunderstandings.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The basic requirement is that both are willing to <strong>speak <\/strong><strong>openly about<\/strong> their <strong>emotions and life experiences<\/strong> , thereby also showing vulnerability to the other person.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1711743634240\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\"><strong>How does EFT work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">EFT can be imagined as a <strong>&#8220;moderated&#8221; conversation<\/strong> between partners, taking place in the office of a couples therapist. The therapist guides the conversation empathetically and openly, thus promoting the development and growth of both partners.<\/p>\n<p>As the name <em>emotion-focused<\/em> therapy suggests, the primary focus is on the feelings of both partners in the relationship. The core of this approach lies in empowering both partners to recognize and express their own emotions and to act constructively in response. The therapist&#8217;s most important task is to amplify and reflect back the emotions of both partners, thereby making them more accessible.<\/p>\n<p>This approach aims to restore a secure emotional bond between the partners, enabling positive changes (such as improved communication and conflict resolution). Unlike other forms of therapy, <strong>no skills<\/strong> (such as communication rules) are <strong>directly trained<\/strong> .<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1711744900459\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\"><strong>How does Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">An EFT consists of three phases:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p style=\"\"><strong>Understanding and breaking free from negative patterns<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"\">In this first phase, couples should become aware of the \u201cvicious cycles\u201d and negative patterns in their partnership that repeatedly lead to conflicts, and how they can break them.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"\"><strong>Renewal of the emotional bond<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"\">In the second phase, both partners are guided to better understand and communicate their emotions, needs, and life experiences to each other. Because they reveal vulnerability during this phase, many find it particularly challenging. They often initially fear it. At the same time, however, this is the most important period for therapeutic change, as the partners can connect on a deep, personal level and reconnect emotionally.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"\"><strong>Promoting sustainability<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"\">The goal of the third phase is to consolidate the changes achieved and maintain them in the long term. To this end, the partners should develop positive relationship rituals.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These three phases are not always clearly distinguishable, and the steps often merge into one another during therapy.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"\" id=\"t-1711745252392\"><span>How long do the sessions last and how often do they take place?<\/span><\/h4>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Emotionally focused couples therapy sessions typically last <strong>90 minutes<\/strong> , though the duration can vary depending on the therapist&#8217;s approach. Sessions usually take place every two <strong>weeks <\/strong><strong>.<\/strong> However, depending on a couple&#8217;s individual situation, an emotionally focused therapist may offer more frequent sessions. The total number of sessions a couple will require cannot be stated definitively. This is always determined by the therapist in consultation with each couple individually. As a guideline, <strong>approximately 8 to 20 sessions<\/strong> are possible.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t-1693212124229\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\"><strong>What costs will couples incur?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Unfortunately, the costs for EFT are not <strong>covered <\/strong><strong>by health insurance<\/strong> . Therefore, they must be borne by the couple themselves.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For a 90-minute session, the cost typically ranges between 150 and 200 euros, depending on the couples therapist. Therefore, the total cost for EFT can range from approximately one thousand to several thousand euros.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"\" id=\"t-1693212124232\"><strong>Alternatives? &#8211; Self-help instead of couples therapy!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">You suspect that your relationship could benefit from external support \u2013 but currently consider couples therapy with a private colleague in a practice to be not feasible?<\/p>\n<p>Then self-help formats could also be the right tool to improve yourself at your own pace. Look online for good guides (in book or audiobook form) on your personal &#8220;topic,&#8221; listen to various podcasts, and try out the recommendations from different expert videos.<\/p>\n<p>It may take some time to discover one or two authors you find interesting &#8211; but you will certainly come across some relationship experts whose suggestions can be particularly helpful for you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The scientifically based self-help program PaarBalance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A complement to, or possibly an alternative to, one-to-one couples therapy or &#8220;bibliotherapy&#8221; (i.e., the use of high-quality literature) is the internet-based online program PaarBalance. This tool is the only scientifically validated, interactive online coaching program in German-speaking countries that can also be used by <em>individual partners<\/em> to improve <em>the relationship overall .<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The program can be carried out flexibly and independently, regardless of time and place \u2013 without having to adhere to the opening hours of a couples therapy practice.<\/p>\n<p>PaarBalance summarizes the core knowledge from 50 years of couple therapy research, along with a wealth of practical recommendations, with the goal of improving relationship quality and restoring more joy and ease in life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Strengthen your relationship: with PaarBalance, <br \/>the online couples therapy for individuals.<\/p>\n<p><span><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image of a laptop displaying the PaarBalance relationship test and profile.\" data-id=\"51795\" width=\"741\" data-init-width=\"768\" height=\"305\" data-init-height=\"305\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paarbalance.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/PaarBalance-Mockup-Laptop-small.png\" data-width=\"741\" style=\"aspect-ratio: auto 768 \/ 305;\" title=\"Couple Balance Relationship Test Laptop\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Developed by couples therapists.

This method is used in couples, individual, and family therapy and aims to transform suffering and relationship stress into trust and intimacy. EFT helps individuals feel safe and accepted in their relationships. Specialized programs and seminars, such as \"Hold Me Tight,\" offer couples the opportunity to reflect deeply on and strengthen their relationship.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper tve-toc

Bevor ein Therapeut dieses Verfahren anbieten darf, muss er zun\u00e4chst einige standardisierte Fortbildungen absolvieren. Die Behandlungsmethode wurde in den 1980er Jahren von Dr. Sue Johnson und Leslie Greenberg unter dem Namen \"Emotionally focused couples therapy\" entwickelt und seitdem kontinuierlich weiterentwickelt. Sie wird in vielen L\u00e4ndern auf der ganzen Welt eingesetzt, besonders h\u00e4ufig in den USA und den Niederlanden. In Deutschland gewinnt sie zunehmend an Beliebtheit.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f259\"><h3 data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f270\" id=\"t-1711743634237\" class=\"\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\"><strong>Welche Annahmen liegen der EFT zugrunde?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f161\"><p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Der Begriff \u201eemotionsfokussiert\u201c deutet bereits auf die <strong>erste Grundannahme<\/strong> hin: Die <strong>Arbeit mit<\/strong> den <strong>Gef\u00fchlen<\/strong> beider Partner ist nach Sue Johnson das zentrale Behandlungselement. Denn laut der Theorie sind es erst die mit ihnen einhergehenden Emotionen, die bestimmte Erlebnisse und Erfahrungen f\u00fcr uns Menschen bedeutsam machen. Ob oder welche Bedeutung etwas f\u00fcr eine Person hat, h\u00e4ngt demnach davon ab, welche Gef\u00fchle ausgel\u00f6st werden.<\/p><p>Entsprechend geht ein emotionsfokussierter Paartherapeut bzw. eine emotionsfokussierte Paartherapeutin davon aus, dass Gef\u00fchle das Verhalten eines Menschen ma\u00dfgeblich steuern: Wachstum entsteht aus emotionalen Begegnungen und Situationen in Beziehungen. Daher fokussiert diese Therapieform in erster Linie auf Emotionen.<\/p><p>Der emotionsfokussierten Paartherapie liegt eine <strong>weitere zentrale Annahme<\/strong> zugrunde: Es wird davon ausgegangen, <strong>dass das Verhalten, das ein Partner in der Beziehung an den Tag legt, nicht b\u00f6swillig ist <\/strong>\u2013 auch dann nicht, wenn es der Partnerschaft objektiv schadet. Emotionsfokussierte Therapeuten begreifen jedes Verhalten stattdessen als die aufrichtige und bestm\u00f6gliche Bem\u00fchung des Partners, N\u00e4he und Sicherheit in der Liebesbeziehung herzustellen. Laut dieser Perspektive von Sue Johnson <strong>geben<\/strong> also <strong>beide Partner ihr Bestes<\/strong> \u2013 das ist nur nicht immer tats\u00e4chlich geeignet, um die Partnerschaft positiv zu gestalten.<\/p><p>Diese Grundhaltung der EFT begr\u00fcndet die Annahme, dass <strong>beide Partner<\/strong>\n<strong>grunds\u00e4tzlich<\/strong> die <strong>F\u00e4higkeit<\/strong> haben, <strong>sich zu ver\u00e4ndern und zu wachsen<\/strong>. Dabei m\u00f6chte die EFT konkret unterst\u00fctzen.<\/p><p>Das Ziel der emotionsfokussierten Paartherapie ist es, wieder eine <strong>emotional-sichere, liebevolle Bindung<\/strong> zwischen den Beziehungspartnern aufzubauen. Hierzu sollen Offenheit und Verst\u00e4ndnis f\u00fcreinander gest\u00e4rkt werden, sodass Verletzungen heilen k\u00f6nnen. Die EFT baut auf Erkenntnissen der psychologischen Bindungstheorie auf.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f259\"><h3 data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f298\" id=\"t-1711743634238\" class=\"\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\"><strong>Was besagt die Bindungstheorie?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f161\"><p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Die Bindungstheorie ist eine klassische psychologische Theorie. Ihre Vertreter gehen davon aus, dass Menschen ein <strong>biologisch angelegtes Bed\u00fcrfnis nach N\u00e4he<\/strong> und emotionaler Unterst\u00fctzung haben. Demnach entwickelt jeder Mensch aufgrund seiner Lebenserfahrungen mit engen Bezugspersonen einen bestimmten <strong>Bindungsstil<\/strong>. Das ist die typische Art, wie er sich in zwischenmenschlichen Beziehungen verh\u00e4lt, sozusagen sein automatisiertes Muster.<\/p><p><strong>In der Bindungswissenschaft werden 4 Bindungsstile unterschieden:<\/strong><\/p><ol class=\"\"><li><p>Ein <strong>sicherer Bindungsstil<\/strong>\n<br>Dieser Bindungsstil kann sich ausbilden, wenn Bezugspersonen angemessen und feinf\u00fchlig auf Bed\u00fcrfnisse reagieren. Erwachsene mit einer sicheren Bindung k\u00f6nnen N\u00e4he und Distanz gut regulieren und Emotionen in Beziehungen ausbalancieren.<\/p><\/li><li><p>Ein <strong>unsicher-ambivalenter Bindungsstil<\/strong>\n<br>Wenn Bezugspersonen zwar manchmal verf\u00fcgbar sind, in anderen Situationen jedoch nicht, pr\u00e4gt sich oftmals ein unsicher-ambivalenter Bindungsstil aus. Als Erwachsene suchen Menschen mit diesem Stil einerseits N\u00e4he, haben aber andererseits Angst davor, verletzt zu werden. Sie versuchen dann, sehr gro\u00dfe Intimit\u00e4t zum Partner aufzubauen und reagieren verzweifelt oder w\u00fctend, wenn diese nicht im selben Ma\u00dfe erwidert wird.<\/p><\/li><li><p>An <strong>insecure-avoidant attachment style:<\/strong>\n<br> If attachment figures do not respond, or only rarely respond, to a child's needs, the affected children often develop an insecure-avoidant attachment style. As adults, these individuals often do not show their emotions. They frequently find it difficult to recognize or name them. Out of fear of being hurt, they keep their partner at a distance and avoid conflict. However, when conflicts do arise, they suffer particularly intensely.<\/p><\/li><li><p>A <strong>disorganized attachment style<\/strong><br> often develops when people have experienced trauma with their caregivers. Their behavior then frequently fluctuates between different attachment styles, making them difficult for their partners to predict.<\/p><\/li><\/ol><p>However, a person's attachment style is not fixed, but can change over the course of their life \u2013 and can also differ to some extent between different caregivers.<\/p><p>Accordingly, the goal of emotion-focused couple therapy is to (re)establish a <strong>secure bond between the partners .<\/strong><\/p><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f259\"><h3 data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f3a8\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\" id=\"t-1711743634239\" class=\"\"><strong>Who is EFT suitable for?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f161\"><p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">EFT is generally <strong>suitable for all couples<\/strong> who are open to introspection and want to change something about their relationship. There are no exclusion criteria that would preclude the use of this method.<\/p><p>However, EFT is particularly recommended for two groups of couples:<\/p><ol class=\"\"><li><p style=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-18e8bf96833\">For (married) couples who feel that their inner connection to each other is damaged or almost completely broken - and who want to restore this connection.<\/p><\/li><li><p style=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-18e8bf970f3\">For couples who find it difficult to show, name, or recognize their own emotions and who therefore repeatedly experience a similar pattern of emotional misunderstandings.<\/p><\/li><\/ol><p>The basic requirement is that both are willing to <strong>speak <\/strong><strong>openly about<\/strong> their <strong>emotions and life experiences<\/strong> , thereby also showing vulnerability to the other person.<strong><\/strong><\/p><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f259\"><h3 data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f3a8\" id=\"t-1711743634240\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\" class=\"\"><strong>How does EFT work?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f161\"><p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">EFT can be imagined as a <strong>\"moderated\" conversation<\/strong> between partners, taking place in the office of a couples therapist. The therapist guides the conversation empathetically and openly, thus promoting the development and growth of both partners.<\/p><p>As the name <em>emotion-focused<\/em> therapy suggests, the primary focus is on the feelings of both partners in the relationship. The core of this approach lies in empowering both partners to recognize and express their own emotions and to act constructively in response. The therapist's most important task is to amplify and reflect back the emotions of both partners, thereby making them more accessible.<\/p><p>This approach aims to restore a secure emotional bond between the partners, enabling positive changes (such as improved communication and conflict resolution). Unlike other forms of therapy, <strong>no skills<\/strong> (such as communication rules) are <strong>directly trained<\/strong> .<\/p><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f259\"><h3 data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f3e5\" id=\"t-1711744900459\" class=\"\" style=\"color: var(--tcb-color-5) !important; --tcb-applied-color: var$(--tcb-color-5) !important;\"><strong>How does Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples work?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\" data-type=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-660726f852f161\"><p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">An EFT consists of three phases:<\/p><ol class=\"\"><li><p style=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-18e8bfa092b\"><strong>Understanding and breaking free from negative patterns<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-18e8bfa19f9\">In this first phase, couples should become aware of the \u201cvicious cycles\u201d and negative patterns in their partnership that repeatedly lead to conflicts, and how they can break them.<\/p><\/li><li><p style=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-18e8bfa11e0\"><strong>Renewal of the emotional bond<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-18e8bfa24bb\">In the second phase, both partners are guided to better understand and communicate their emotions, needs, and life experiences to each other.
