Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy

What is Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT)?

Emotion-Focused Individual Therapy is all about helping you understand, process, and work through your emotions in a way that promotes healing and growth. Instead of pushing feelings away or getting stuck in them, this approach helps you:

• Understand your emotions: Recognize what you’re feeling and why it matters.

• Listen to your feelings: Emotions carry important messages about your needs and experiences, and this therapy helps you tune in.

• Transform emotional pain: Work through difficult emotions to create a sense of relief, clarity, and empowerment.

It’s about creating a space where your emotions aren’t something to fear or avoid—they’re tools for understanding yourself and building a life that feels authentic and whole.

What are the goals of EFT Therapy? What are the benefits?

The goal of EFIT is to:

• Build emotional awareness - gain access and insight into what you are feeling.

• Regulate difficult feelings and learn to express them effectively

• Address unresolved pain from the past. Through EFIT, you can develop self-compassion, emotional resilience, and a deeper connection to yourself and others. This helps to build a secure sense of self.

The benefits of EFIT include feeling more in control of your behaviour - regardless of whatever you are feeling, gaining insight into your emotional patterns, and improving your relationships.

By learning to navigate life’s challenges with greater confidence and aligning your actions with your emotional needs and values, you can create a more authentic, fulfilling life.
