Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for Couples in Jackson Hole

EFT is a proven, research-based approach and the gold standard for couples therapy in Jackson Hole. Whether you’re facing relationship distress or want to deepen connection, improve communication, and rebuild trust, EFT provides lasting results.

In marriage or couples counseling, we’ll identify the negative patterns causing disconnection and work together to create new, healthier ways of relating—so you can strengthen your bond and get your relationship back on track.

Common Issues Addressed in Couples Therapy

Couples therapy helps identify and break the negative patterns that often lead to:

  • Marital distress
  • Communication breakdowns
  • Distance and recurring conflict
  • Emotional disconnection
  • Lack of sexual intimacy

It can also support healing in the face of:

  • Infidelity or betrayal
  • Substance misuse/abuse
  • Pornography addiction
  • Verbal abuse or criticism
  • Mental illness or emotional instability

Even the strongest relationships hit rough patches. Therapy can help you rebuild together, with intention.

Every relationship experiences distress from time to time. When couples get stuck in a negative cycle, it becomes harder to express needs, feel heard, or offer emotional responsiveness. Over time, this cycle erodes trust, safety, and connection.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is one of the most research-supported and effective forms of couples therapy. Your therapist follows a clear and structured roadmap to help you recognize your negative cycle and understand how it’s impacting communication, trust, safety, and closeness.

In our sessions, we’ll work together to uncover the deeper emotional experiences—like fear, rejection, loneliness, or not feeling “enough”—that often drive reactive behaviors like yelling, criticism, shutting down, or stonewalling. As you begin to share these vulnerable emotions with each other in a safe space, you can start to shift the dynamic—creating new, healing interactions and a renewed sense of closeness.
