Emotionally Focused Therapy for Individuals (EFIT)

My work with individual clients is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy for Individuals (EFIT), an attachment-based, humanistic approach that draws on my Existential training. At its heart, EFIT is about exploring and understanding your emotional world: the patterns beneath the surface, the needs that have gone unmet, and the ways you've learned to relate to yourself and others.

​

Together, we can work towards greater emotional awareness, deeper self-understanding, and more fulfilling connections with others and with yourself.

​

Whatever brings you here, the work is yours. My role is to offer a space that is honest, safe, and genuinely attuned to you.

 

Areas we might explore together:

​

Relationships: Our connections with others shape who we are and how we feel about ourselves. If you find it hard to form or sustain satisfying relationships, therapy can help you understand your emotional patterns, communicate more clearly, and build deeper, more secure connections.

​

Anxiety: Rather than managing symptoms alone, EFIT works at the roots, exploring the emotional experiences that fuel your anxiety and helping you develop a more grounded, resilient relationship with those feelings.

​

Depression and meaning: A prolonged sense of emptiness or meaninglessness can be one of the most painful human experiences. I'll work alongside you to explore what matters to you, attend to what your emotions and beliefs are telling you, and help you find your own sense of meaning and direction.

​

Trauma: Whether you're carrying something from the distant past or something more recent, EFIT offers a safe, supportive space to process traumatic memories at your own pace, fostering a sense of safety and renewed connection with yourself and others.

​

Self-awareness: Understanding your own emotional landscape is at the core of this work. As you become more attuned to your inner world, you'll often find shifts in how you think, how you relate to others, and how you feel about yourself.

​

Decision-making and personal responsibility: Sometimes we feel stuck, caught between choices or unsure of our own agency. Drawing on existential ideas, I can help you explore how you are the author of your own life — your freedoms, your choices, and their meaning.

​

Grief and loss: Every loss is different, and every story deserves to be heard. In a society that often rushes people through grief, therapy offers the space to move at your own pace, to feel the full range of what loss brings, without pressure to be further along than you are.
