Improve communication between parents and children
Reduce conflict and emotional reactivity
Strengthen trust and emotional safety within the family system
Help parents understand and respond to needs of children
Promote creation of emotionally safe home environment where all members feel seen, supported and secure
This evidence-based approach helps families develop lasting connection and promotes positive child development and resilience through fostering secure attachment.
why efft?
Emotionally Focused Therapy for Families (EFFT) is an attachment-based approach that works to mend broken bonds and heal fractured families.
We guide the process by focusing on the emotional experience within a family and the problematic patterns that block parents from being emotionally available, responsive and engaged with their children. EFFT will help get your family back on track through targeted sessions that strengthen parent/child bonds and foster lasting connections.
EFFT with parents and adult children
Family dynamics don’t end when children grow up. Conflict, miscommunication and unresolved issues can persist well into adulthood, creating potential for long-term negative impact or estrangement. Using Emotionally Focused Family Therapy, we help parents and adult children:
Break long-standing negative patterns and cycles of conflict
Improve communication and mutual understanding
Rebuild trust and repair strained relationships
Strengthen emotional connectedness to create desired parent/child relationship in adulthood
This focused, trauma-informed approach provides a safe space for families to reconnect, resolve past hurts and create healthier and lasting relationships.
