Emotion-focused therapy is an approach that prioritizes the understanding of emotion and emotional regulation as central parts of an individual's experiences and relationship interactions. EFT is a fit for individuals who may feel disconnected from their feelings and who want to dive into their emotional experiences, especially if they feel that these themes are causing conflict in their lives. An emotion-focused therapy approach gives an awareness of your emotions and how to understand them. EFT has been established over time for individuals and families, and has shown its effectiveness for establishing better interactions between couples.

After attending EFT sessions, there are many tools individuals take away that can support them. For example, you will learn to question harmful thoughts instead of acting on them, build stronger bonds with loved ones, understand past trauma, work toward healthy attachment behaviours, and acknowledge and identify the emotions happening in yourself and others.

Attachment therapy modality is often used along with emotion-focused therapy (EFT) in the therapeutic space. EFT incorporates the theories and techniques from the attachment therapy approach in order to support individuals in strengthening their relationships by working toward a secure attachment.
