Couples Therapy: an Emotionally Focused approach.

I have been doing couples therapy for as long as I have been a therapist, and over the years have created a way of working which has had a moderate success rate, using principles taught but also intuited  by years of training and doing the work. I have seen how deeply people long for love: for connection, to be heard and seen and and accepted as they are. That is what emotional nourishment consist of, and what is almost always lacking in a marriage or relationship which is in trouble.  Sometimes it is too late to learn to reconnect: too many hurts, too much distance, too many individual emotional issues which had come in the way. But for couples who can identify the unhappiness or dissatisfaction (which is usually the beginnings of disconnection) in time,  couples counselling can be fruitful and lead to an enriched relationship. This video introduces and explains an effective and well researched approach to working with couples, and shows the direction in which I am developing my further skills as a therapist. This approach fits perfectly with how I have been working, and with how I see relationships and love and connection, and the importance there-of in our lives
