What are the steps of success in EFT Couples Counseling? (mentioned above)
In clinical experiments, EFT has a 90% success rate, for couples who follow through with the steps below:
– Attending and engaging in your sessions regularly and through all eight steps within EFT. Depending on the severity, intensity and duration of the issues, the couple is experiencing, this may take 12 sessions, or a year. Every marriage or relationship is different; and your counselor will give you feedback on your treatment plan and expected time to resolve your struggles in counseling. If you’ve already decided you’re done with the relationship and want to part ways, couples therapy will not likely be helpful.
– Ending all affairs. If there’s an ongoing affair, the couple can not move forward.
– Completing in-between session couples’ work.
The bigger threat to your relationship is inaction. Regardless of what therapy approach is used, we know what doesn’t work: continuing to fight, criticize each other, or withdraw to avoid addressing the turmoil, anger and hurt you’re both likely holding on to.
All too often we see couples struggle with coming in for the help they need; hoping something will change naturally or with more conflict, people tend to hold out before seeking help. We encourage you to call or email us to get more information how therapy can help your specific couples issues, before it’s too late. The sooner you seek help, the higher the success rate you will have in counseling.
