Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a research based modality that has been validated by over 30 years of empirical research. It is considered one of the most effective evidenced-based therapeutic models available today in working with individuals, couples and families. It has been applied to different kinds of problems and populations. EFT aims to shape new corrective emotional experiences, well-functioning relationships and better patterns of engagement with intimate others. Sue Johnson is one of the original founders and the main proponent of EFT. She is the author of several books either for therapists or couples, such as Hold me Tight, Love sense, and Attachment Theory in Practice.
