How Long Does EFCT Typically Take?
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) is a proven, evidence-based approach designed to enhance emotional connection and relationship satisfaction between partners. By focusing on emotional needs, EFCT helps couples understand the deeper issues driving conflict and disconnection. Through structured sessions, couples work to identify negative patterns and replace them with healthier ways of interacting.
EFCT also emphasizes key relationship skills like communication in relationships, conflict resolution, and trust building. By addressing these areas, EFCT helps couples rebuild trust and strengthen their bond, fostering deeper emotional intimacy and long-term relational growth.

We take a collaborative approach to therapy, working with both partners to develop strategies for a healthier relationship. Using evidence-based practices like EFCT, we address your specific needs and relationship goals.
The goal of EFCT is to strengthen emotional bonds between partners by addressing core relationship issues such as communication difficulties, trust building, and conflict resolution. Through EFCT, couples gain insight into their emotional needs and learn strategies to improve relationship satisfaction and enhance emotional connection.
Many couples ask, “Do you think we can make it?” or “Is this salvageable?” We believe that any relationship can improve if both partners are willing to put in the hard work and stay committed. EFCT is effective even in relationships facing trust issues, escalated arguments, or potential separation. By focusing on communication and rebuilding emotional connection, couples therapy helps restore the bond and fosters long-term relationship growth, no matter how difficult the situation. If you love them, it’s worth the effort.
EFCT typically takes 8-20 sessions, though the exact length depends on the couple’s unique situation. For some, a few sessions may resolve easily identifiable issues, while others dealing with years of heartache and resentment may require more time.
​
During the first session of Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, we focus on understanding how conflict arises and the factors that intensify it. Over the next few sessions, we provide couples with tools to de-escalate conflicts, offering relief from tension. Once these tools are in place, we begin working on EFCT, helping couples rebuild trust, express emotions, and address communication difficulties. Sessions focus on bonding through conversation, resolving emotional disconnect, and fostering intimacy to create a stronger emotional foundation.

While we’d all like quick fixes, the best results take time.
