Emotion focused therapy for couples (EFT-C)
I work with the Emotion focused therapy for couples (EFT-C) approach.
Emotion Focused Couples Therapy offers partners a new way out of conflict and strengthens their emotional bond. It helps partners transform a negative hurtful cycle of interactions into a positive spiral in which each partner feels respected and loved. Than are also partners able to resolve their difficult issues together. EFT for couples brings partners a new emotional experience, understanding each other and empowerment of their own responsibility for a healthy relationship.
Emotion Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) was first formulated and tested by Sue Johnson and Les Greenberg in 1985 as an approach to helping couples. Later an approach for individual therapeutic work was aditionally created. Today, for its large sucess, the EFT for individuals and EFT for couples are used worldwide.
Our relationship lab
Let me share with you the treasure that couples discover themselves. I often tell myself: "If only this couple experienced this and that couple heard that…!" Every couple creates a unique organism with its own joys, challenges and needs, yet there is a bottom line of issues/items which helps to heal every relationship. Please do not take the following cards as an exhaustive guide to a good relationship. Rather, it is a gallery of sketches and pieces arising from the painful as well as creative and joyful process of relationship transformation that your "colleagues" bravely go through. These authentic discoveries are far more valuable than general therapeutic theory. Nevertheless, let me add a bit of context and experience to the displayed specimens/works.

About me
Psychotherapy is always an adventurous journey for me. I can humbly witness the hidden beauty of the inner landscape of a human or their relationship. For a while, I become a fellow/guide (‘guide’ has too much authority in it, doesn´t it?) for the other one to be able to pass through the difficult terrain more easily. And if the horizon gets darker, we are waiting together for the dawn.
In psychotherapy since 2010. In my private practice, I accompany partner couples, families and adults as part of individual therapy.
My life profession in the field of children and families at risk, from direct social work and therapy to high NGO management.
I love my family, the heights of mountains and the depths of waters. I constantly clear my head through pairs acrobatics.
