Relationships
Relationships have their challenges--stresses of life, changes over time, having different values (eg. money, parenting, tidiness etc.).
My training is in Emotionally Focussed Therapy, or EFT, which was developed in the 1980s by Dr. Sue Johnson. EFT has a research basis showing that 86-90% of couples report significant improvement in their relationships after engaging in EFT.
EFT is about taking control of the cycle of negativity to come back to being on the same team and once again embrace in a secure loving bond. Couples learn to turn towards each other in a safe and secure way, becoming more open and responsive to one another.

I also incorporate elements from the Gottman method of working with relationships, and from my experience in working with couples.
