Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) in NYC
Break Painful Patterns and Build Stronger Relationships
Do you and your partner love each other deeply but find yourselves feeling emotionally disconnected or isolated? Are you trapped in a cycle of having the same fights over and over again? Perhaps you are having trouble refinding your footing after a significant life transition or loss. If these experiences resonate with you, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) might be the right fit for you.
At Silver Therapy Group, our New York-based psychologists use EFT to help individuals and couples communicate better, improve conflict resolution abilities, and regain a sense of security and emotional fulfillment in their connection.
We offer in-person therapy at our Upper West Side office and virtual therapy for clients located throughout New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
What Is EFT and How Does It Work?
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a highly effective, evidence-based approach that strengthens and rebuilds relationships. It’s an evidence-based approach to therapy that helps you understand the emotions, fears, and unmet needs beneath recurring communication patterns. It can be done in both individual and couples counseling sessions.
People naturally seek emotional safety and connection in close relationships. When that closeness feels uncertain, they may become defensive, pull away, or avoid the issue. These reactions often come from caring about the relationship, but they can make both people feel even more distant.
Your EFT therapist helps you understand these strong reactions in yourself and your partner and gives you the tools to respond to each other with greater openness and understanding. Our clients throughout New York have told us their EFT sessions have helped them create stronger relationships, improve their communication skills, and make it easier to navigate conflict.
Our Approach to ACT at Silver Therapy Group
Silver Therapy Group is a dedicated team of New York-based clinical psychologists. Therapy with us is warm, active, collaborative, and tailored to you and your partner. Not every person or couple expresses themselves the same way, so we take the time to understand you, your values, your goals, and your background.
Through methods like EFT, our therapists can help you:
-
Understand unhelpful communication patterns
-
Slow down reactive or difficult conversations
-
Express your needs more directly
-
Listen with greater openness
-
Repair after conflict and disconnection
-
Build a more secure and responsive bond with others
EFT has allowed many to find meaningful improvements to their relationship issues, including repeated arguments, emotional disconnection, communication problems, and trust issues.
Depending on your needs, we may integrate your EFT session with other therapeutic approaches like CBT, ACT, DBT, or mindfulness-based approaches. We work with both individuals and couples throughout New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
We specialize in helping New Yorkers get out of their heads and back into their lives.
We specialize in helping New Yorkers who feel disconnected, alone, or stuck in patterns that are no longer serving them.
