Attachment and Emotionally Focused Therapy

Emotionally Focused Therapy, with Sue Johnson

Emotionally Focused Therapy or EFT, is a therapy based on attachment theory, and was developed by Dr. Susan Johnson. This therapy has been empirically researched, reviewed, and has proven to be successful in helping individuals, couples and families create secure bonding experiences. Secure relationships organize our worlds into making more sense, help us take risks, give us flexibility, and give our lives more meaning.

Attachment Theory

Attachment theory was developed by John Bowlby, Mary Ainsworth, and Mary Main. This podcast explains attachment theory and how it impacts the view of ourselves and view of others. It also discusses how our survival strategies are impacted by our need for bonding and connection.
